No, it's not.
This isn't an RV issue. It's a relationship issue. The fact that you're asking anonymous people on the Internet for relationship advice is...well...I'll hold my opinion on that.

A friend of mine recently got a 40 foot diesel pusher and his mother in law was admiring the new coach and asked “how many does it sleep”? He quickly replied two.[emoji23]

I would not want others sleeping over in ours either, mostly due to it's size. However, you are right--RVs have temperamental systems and are much more delicate than what's in a S&B house. Easy to tear up and not realize.
How long have you two been dating? Is this her first area of disrespecting your boundaries?

You've got a lemon... and I'm not talking about the RV.

I can relate! It took a stern talk with the wife to get her to understand that I do not like a tone sleeping in my bed! Period! I had to really lay down the law on that one. Mind you, she is a caring, giving woman with a huge heart. But it just will not work having someone else sleep in my bed.

The coach is similar to the boat we have had for 20 years. When someone says they would love to go with us I ask what kind of boat they bought and give them the number of the marina so they can rent a cabin, or the name of the campground next door so they can reserve a site. I then tell them they are welcome to ride along on the boat all day and go to their place at night.
When the kids were in school we let 1 bring a friend if the other wasn’t coming, which made it better for us. As far as our friends are concerned we probably haven’t had more than 10 people stay on the boat with us in 20 years.
In the coach they can ride with us and bring a tent. Never had a problem.
The boat has 2 separate cabins and the coach only has a fold out. If someone were to stay on the fold out they had better be ready at around 8am for me to show up in my skivvies and make coffee[emoji41]!

Been there, done that. As the Raven said, "Nevermore!"

Yep, I've had those questions... Like, "So, How Many Does That Thing Sleep"?
I always reply "just two", and then get funny looks

Council
Suggest you discuss your concerns directly. If you can't do that, you will never have a relationship that is a partnership. Boats and RVs are small spaces. They must be respected. That requires the recognition of appropriate responsibility and the associated behaviors.
It does not happen often, but from time to time folks discuss relationships which are not compatible with either the RV lifestyle or their own personal lifestyle. Generally, the problem is that one or both partners do not understand or are unwilling to adapt. Establish which issue you have and fix it or end it.
School - only one priority is acceptable - finishing with a satisfactory result. Any distraction should be shed until a later period of time. It is a period of deferred gratification. Otherwise the effort is a waste.

I'm wondering why you're putting up with this mess in the first place 
OCD ? No just reasonable. They'll call you every name in the book to make you feel badly and give in. If you can't do this for yourself, DO IT FOR YOUR DAUGHTER FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE!!!

Nothing else said could be any more accurate than what these two posted. Jim E. OKC
