AIBU to not want to share a room with someone on a trip with friends?

[juice92]

My friends and I have been talking about going for a weekend away together next year (in this country). We would be staying in a hotel as oppose to any sort of house share/air bnb. All of us are women and I would say that I am fairly close to all of them.

I don't want to share a room with someone else. I like to have space on my own at the end of the evening and I also like having my own bathroom.

There are an even number of us going so I understand that will ultimately leave someone else in a room they have to pay for by themselves. To accommodate this I have offered to pay some additional money on top of the cost of my hotel room.

I have been called strange and awkward for not wanting to share a room.

AIBU? And would you be happy to share a room with friends?

I could share a room with someone in case of emergency like earthquake or fire or unexpected death. I could spend a night in someone’s room caring for them.
But to do this as a relaxing break, for fun and to pay for this …. no way. I wouldn’t go on holiday with my mum or my sister if it means sharing a room.
of course, I could share rooms and beds when I was in my early 20s but now I could only share a room with my DH or DD.

In our late teens/early 20's friends and I shared rooms together and sometimes beds and I think then I would have been upset if one friend wanted her own room.

Now I'm married and a bit older I would completely understand where they would be coming from and OP shouldn't be made to feel awkward.

I didn’t mind when younger but I hate it now. I wouldn’t go anywhere Inhad to share a room these days. Only with my husband.

YANBU

I've shared rooms in the very distant past, these days I’m too old for that shit

IBS is 100% reason enough to have your own room.

I'm another who doesn't like sharing rooms anyway. I'm used to sleeping by myself. And I find it's always the people who fall asleep quickest who snore loudest! I struggle to get to sleep at any time and I've been forced to resort to sleeping on the bathroom floor before now.

YANBU at all.

I don't share rooms. Want my own bathroom and not chat for the first hour I'm awake.

They don't seem very nice. You are not strange.
