I live with my partner and later in the year there is a video game coming out that I am really excited about. I t gets released on a Friday so I plan to take the Friday and the Monday off to have a nice long weekend to play it. I told my gf what I was planning to do and mentioned I won’t want to be making plans that weekend since I’ll be busy.

She said I shouldn’t be taking 2 days off just to play a video game and that it now limits the time I have that we can take off together. I told her I’ll still have enough leave to take time off with her and that pretty much every day I’ve already taken off has been so we can do things. I mentioned that I should be allowed to take a few days off for just myself.

She just repeated that it limits plans we cna make and it’s selfish but I told her I’m allowed to use my leave for my hobbies. She said blocking out the full 4 days for the video game is too much and that I should be open to at least make plans that weekend but I refused since we can make plans any other weekend and I should be allowed a long weekend just for this and she just repeated I was being selfish and not prioritising the relationship.

AITA for planning to take annual leave to play a video game?
