My DH and I are in the process of buying our first home. We're very fortunate in that we've been able to buy a three bedroom house, however the second and third bedrooms are quite small. We've earmarked the second bedroom as a spare room and will put a double bed in there, but DH has decided that the third bedroom will be his study.
I have no problem making that bedroom a study, but I want to put a single pull-out chair bed in there so it can double as another bedroom if we have multiple people staying. I've fully measured the room, and the chair bed I've got my eye on fits with plenty of room to spare when it's fully extended, alongside a desk, desk chair and the door etc.
DH has now thrown his toys out of the cot saying that he likes the idea of having his own space for "tinkering and working". He will already have the garage for DIY and the shed for gardening. I won't have anywhere.
AIBU in thinking this is selfish and to say to him "well we'll scrap the idea of having spare bedrooms at all and I'll take bedroom 2 for my sewing room"???
(Just as a disclaimer, he's great in every other way: does more housework than me; does all annoying life admin; happy to share the TV so I can watch Jane the Virgin; brings me breakfast in bed etc etc etc)
