Why didn't I tell the guy sitting in my window seat to move?

I am on a plane. I buy my tickets early in order to secure a window seat. I don't like the aisle.
I have priority so I board pretty early. I get to my seat and some guy is strapped in tight.

Im not afraid of anyone but sometimes I just choose the path of least resistance. So I said hello and he seemed friendly enough so I just sat down in the aisle seat. At least its not a middle seat.
But then Im wondering did he really not realize that he didn't purchase a window seat?

🤗 He might not have realized he was sitting in the wrong seat. If you were in someone else's seat and didn't realize it would you want them to tell you? I recommend to tell them nicely that it is your seat. If they purposefully took a seat then maybe they hope that no one would notice or be too shy to say anything because they are a jerk. Either way I smile and say "Sir, I think that's my seat" 🙂
