‘My spouse’s bed room decor is completely ruining our intercourse life – it turns my abdomen’
Everyone’s got their own turn-ons and turn-offs, but one bloke found himself in a right pickle when it came to getting frisky with his missus all thanks to her choice of bedroom decor.
The chap revealed he’s been hitched to his other half for half a decade, gushing “I love her so much, and I am so incredibly lucky to be married to her, but there is one thing that really bothers me” and that’s something he just can’t stomach.
He shared that his beloved is mad about rock music, especially emo bands, which he’s totally cool with. However, what’s putting a damper on his libido is the sea of band posters plastering their bedroom walls.
Spilling the beans on Reddit’s ‘Am I The A**hole’ forum, the 31-year-old lad said: “This by itself doesn’t bother me at all, in fact, I love the music too and we go to concerts together all the time. What bothers me is that she has posters of these bands tacked up everywhere around our house. Our bedroom walls are COVERED in them. And I mean covered.”

He continued, “There is not a single inch of wall space in our bedroom that is not dedicated to her band posters. Everywhere I go, everything I do, there are always eyes of a hundred emo men following me around. It sounds stupid, and it probably is to be honest, but I don’t think I can stand another night’s sleep feeling like I am being watched constantly.”
“I don’t want to be ‘watched’ by the members of My Chemical Romance or Taking Back Sunday or 21 Pilots as we make love. I’ve tried asking her nicely to move some of them and she gets really offended and mad at me so I just left it behind. But it’s getting hard to handle.”
Fellow users rushed in to assure the chap that he wasn’t alone in his feelings, chiming in: “I also have posters from concerts and live shows and prints hanging, but they’re limited to a few places, namely over my dresser, a shelf with my other knick-knacks, and over my computer desk.”
“The rest of the wall space is shared with my husband and contains photos of friends/family and photos he’s taken as a photographer. One partner does not get to monopolise decoration.”
Another added: “If they are legitimately EVERYWHERE it is reasonable to ask for some to be removed. You’d be the a**hole if you asked her to get rid of them all or if you ripped them up” with someone else agreeing: “It’s fine for her to have some posters of the bands she loves on the walls, but the house (and the bedroom) is yours as well, and you get a say in the decor as well. It’s not like you asked her to take down all of them – just some of them. This is a reasonable compromise.”
One Redditor commented: “She has to grow up and learn to compromise. She can have one room to decorate with the posters and if she wants to decorate the bedroom, it’s one wall only. That gives you free space so you don’t feel so suffocated.”
