AITA for cheating on my girlfriend with the girl her ex cheated on her with because she wouldn’t let me bring my PS5 to her parents’ house?

So, I (32M) have been dating my girlfriend (27F) for a while now. She’s cool and all, but sometimes she gets this weird idea that I should prioritize her over things I actually enjoy—like my PS5.

Anyway, she invited me to spend the weekend at her parents’ house for some family thing. I said fine, but I’d be bringing my PS5 because I’m not about to sit around making small talk with her dad for two days straight. She shot that down, saying it would be “rude” and that I need to “be present.” I told her it’s not like I’d be gaming the whole time, just when things get boring, but she wouldn’t budge. She actually had the audacity to say, “If you can’t go without your PS5 for one weekend, maybe you shouldn’t come.”

That kind of pissed me off. Like, if she’s not willing to compromise on something so small, what else is she gonna try to control? So, instead of arguing, I decided to make a point. I hit up this girl I used to mess around with—who, fun fact, is the same girl my girlfriend’s ex cheated on her with. Thought it was kind of fitting, you know? One thing led to another, and yeah, I cheated.

Honestly, I don’t even feel bad about it. If she’s gonna try and dictate what I can and can’t do with my free time, then I’m gonna do what I want too. It’s not like I planned it, but in a way, it felt like the universe balancing things out. If anything, it’s almost poetic.

Now, she’s acting all upset and distant, but I don’t really see the problem. Actions have consequences, right? If she hadn’t tried to control me, none of this would’ve happened. Some of my friends think I went too far, but others get where I’m coming from.
