A woman has revealed how she has fallen out with her husband because she complained after getting fed up with listening to their neighbours having loud sex through the wall. The couple, who are currently on vacation, are having a bit of a dry spell in the bedroom department and their fellow holiday-makers’ antics were not helping matters.

Taking to Reddit to find out if she was in the wrong, the 38-year-old woman wrote: “We have been together for 14 and this is our first trip without our kids. Part of the reason we have taken this trip is to 'rekindle the relationship'. This is a two-week trip and we are on day 9, for context, we have had sex once. We were both drunk, and I think we both forced it a bit. We get on great as people, but our sex life has been an issue since we had children.”

She went on: “This has only gotten worse since last year my husband told me he 'loves me but doesn't find me attractive sexually anymore' which was upsetting and hurtful as in the past three years I have gained over 100lbs.”

The wife went on to say that the five-star resort they are staying at is amazing with a private pool for each room but her husband has managed to find fault with everything - the staff, the food, and the other guests.

Continuing the story, she wrote: “Five days ago in the room next door a young British couple took the room. For context, they are both very attractive, if I found out they were Instagram models or something I would not be shocked. The issue is each room shares a wall with another room, and we share a room and a lower balcony where we can see their terrace with this couple.

“Since they have arrived we have heard them having sex more or less twice a day, in addition when they are sat on the terrace they are kissing and all over each other, in addition, the woman next door is sunbathing topless. I know we are in Europe and that's the norm but I find it hard to get used to.

“My husband quickly befriended them over the balcony, and truthfully I think lusting over the woman next door. Who I think was oblivious to this. I have also spoken to them both and they seem nice.”

The 38-year-old then revealed that after being woken up in the middle of the night twice to the sound of them having sex, and again the following morning, she went and asked the concierge if they could ask them to keep it down.

“Obviously having been told something, last night the man next door angrily told my husband if he had an issue he should have said something directly. My husband did not know I had reported it, and we then argued all yesterday evening,” she said. “My husband called me ridiculous and a prude and that if I was 'more carefree' we wouldn't have any issues.

“I also brought up his obvious like of the woman next door and he angrily said 'why wouldn't I, she is young, thin and hot' which was an obvious dig of what I am not. He then angrily walked around the hotel room before going to sleep in silence. This morning I woke up to a text that he had gone to hike up a hill/mountain - this takes all day and we had decided earlier in the trip we wouldn't do it.

“Since he returned we have hardly spoken, and we were supposed to go out for dinner but he has suggested we just order room service. Am I the a**hole for complaining about the couple next door? Or is he in the wrong for leaving me in the hotel all day on vacation?”

While many people were inclined to offer little sympathy for the woman, lots rushed to give her some support. One person wrote: “You don't need a vacation, you need therapy. You two seem to have serious issues that a different bedroom isn't going to solve. If you are both intent on saving your marriage, you owe it to yourselves to at least try counseling or therapy.”

“Your husband is the biggest asshole present, but you're taking out your frustrations on innocent bystanders,” added another user. “It's not the younger lady's fault that your husband is an inappropriate horndog. It's not their fault that your vacation isn't having the restorative effect you were hoping for. And honestly, I don't think the main issue is that they're having sex. The main issue is that your husband sounds terrible, and he's making you feel terrible, and you're searching for a reason to be feeling terrible that isn't the doom of your longstanding relationship.”

However, someone else blasted: “You’re the a**hole. I know you're hoping we'll judge you vs your husband, but that's not the thing that's ultimately at the core of the "AITA" judgement. You took out your insecurities and dissatisfaction with your vacation on a couple on their own vacation.”
