Put an eye mask on and go to sleep, he will soon turn it off

I would say it is the thin end of the wedge with him blatantly telling you that he and his time are more important and that you are less important.

It is a very small thing that speaks volumes of his respect for you.

He cannot even be bothered to turn a light off on the way through because your time/rest is secondary to his.

Yep, remove the bulb. place it on the floor, so that he stands on it before getting in to bed
