Have you and your sibling ever moved into a place together? Some people love it, as your sibling is technically like your first roommate, but others find it impossible and stuffy.

One woman is at a standstill with her younger sister after she revealed that she would have to move her things around in their shared home because she’s having a baby.

She and her sister are both in their mid-20s, but she’s a few years older than her sister. Both of their parents sadly passed away, and they inherited their four-bedroom house. Not wanting to go anywhere else, she and her sister decided to live in the house together. 

One of the bedrooms is a large primary bedroom. It has an ensuite bathroom and a big walk-in closet. The other three bedrooms are average in size. They struck up a deal where her sister gets the primary room, and she gets two of the remaining rooms.

One is her actual bedroom, and the other is her gaming room. Finally, the smallest bedroom is used as a guest room. 

Things were going well for her and her sister until her sister’s boyfriend eventually moved in. A while after he did, her sister announced that she was pregnant and that they intended to raise their baby in the house.

“I’m not particularly looking forward to sharing a house with a screaming baby, but it’s her house too, and she has every right to be here and raise her kid,” she said.

She figured her sister and her boyfriend would use the guest room for their baby’s nursery, but she was wrong. Her sister wants her to move her things out of her gaming room so they can use that as the nursery.

Additionally, her sister still wants a guest room in the house since her boyfriend’s family will visit once the baby is born, so the guest room would stay as it is.

This means her sister wants her to gather all her things and move them into one average-sized room.

She told her sister that if she wanted to use the extra rooms, she should move into the primary bedroom, and her sister could use her gaming room as a bedroom. 

“She started crying and said that as a mother, she’s going to need her own space, and she deserves the master bedroom,” she remembered. “I asked what she expected me to do, and she said I should just suck it up.”

Since the initial argument with her sister, she hasn’t budged or agreed to give up her rooms. Her sister’s boyfriend said she should just deal with it and give her sister what she wants, considering she’s not planning on having her own kids anytime soon. 

Her sister and her boyfriend don’t have enough money to buy her out of the house or get a place, so unfortunately, that isn’t an option at the moment. So instead, she’d rather buy her sister out so she and her boyfriend can get their own place to raise their baby.

Her sister has been calling her names and is still very angry. Is she doing the right thing by standing her ground, or should she give up one of her rooms for her sister?
