She Refuses to Go Out With Her Sister Even Though She’s a Guest in Her Home. Is She Wrong?

What’s the proper etiquette if you’re staying at someone’s house?

Do you do what they want to humor them and be a good guest, or do you only do what YOU wanna do?

Hmmm…that’s a tough one.

And this woman asked the readers on Reddit’s “Am I the A**hole?” page if she acted like a jerk for refusing to go out with her sister when she was staying at her house

Let’s see what’s going on here…

AITA for refusing to go out with my sister when I’m a guest at her house?

“My sister has just given birth about a month and a half ago and I went over to help her with the baby/house chores since her husband couldn’t take a leave from work.

The problem is, my sister is an extremely outgoing person and loves going to places/trying out new things.

Me on the other hand, I’m burnt out and all I’m thinking about for an outing is how I will be carrying the stroller across the long metro stairs, the baby needing a diaper change and us running to the nearest toilet, the heavy traffic, the loud noises, in short I see it as stress and a chore, not something I’d do out of enjoyment.

For several days in a row now, I’ve been holed up in my room and refusing to go out with her while she goes alone. Today, she told me we will just go to the nearest park and that it’s unhealthy for me to stay cooped up in the house all the time.

I declined again and she became upset and said she wasn’t in the mood to go out anymore. She said why I was even over if all I wanted to do was to stay home, that she was depressed and I’m making her feel worse. I told her she can always go by herself and leave the baby with me but she said that defeats the point of having company.

She grumbled about no one caring about her and went into their bedroom and shut the door. I’ve been thinking maybe I should’ve just suck it up and just go with her but I don’t know why she insists on me going out too when I said I’m exhausted.

Idk, AITA?”

Let’s see what Reddit users said about this.
