Imagine being woken up every morning at 3AM by your partner flipping on the bedroom light and rummaging loudly for their work clothes. That’s exactly what happened to one wife whose husband recently switched to an early morning shift. Despite her requests for him to be considerate and prepare his clothes the night before, he continued to disrupt her sleep. Finally, she had enough and moved all her stuff to the guest room. But is she overreacting, or is her husband the one in the wrong?
