Good exterior paint is formulated to stretch a bit better due to the extreme thermal changes that take place on the exterior. The result is the finish is not as hard as you will find on a similar interior paint. In 3-5 years you may notice excessive wear in high traffic areas.
Exterior paints usually have chemicals to counter UV degradation. Without enough UV exposure, these chemicals may give a slight yellow cast to the paint over time. This will be less noticeable if the color is a dark tint.
Exterior paints may contain a higher concentration of ammonia. This may cause a foul odor as you paint, but it should go away within a week or so.
If it were mine, I would bite the bullet and get interior paint, mostly for the wear factor. The paint cost money, but your time is valuable as well. You may feel the need to do the job again much sooner if you use the exterior.

You shouldn’t feel too bad.
This was your salesperson’s
fault at the paint store. Unless you specifically asked for exterior paint, the salesperson should have asked you where
you were going to use the paint and would have made it
very clear to you, the kind of
paint you SHOULD BE using.
I would lay this problem at the feet of the paint store.
They need to take the paint
back or make an adjustment
on INTERIOR PAINT.
Do not put exterior paint on
the interior of your home.
It is a distinctly different
blend of paints and chemicals. Use only INTERIOR paints INSIDE
your home. Don’t think of it
as being “screwed”. We all
make worse mistakes than this…and I still say I would
not let your paint store OFF THE HOOK. IT’S THEIR
FAULT. ( I honestly believe
this has happened at the store before and they know just how to handle it. Give them a chance to make it right.)

Here you can choose to skip this, because not is exterior paint,also not about the contents of the computer help,But, just relax:A bird in the hand is worth than two in the bush. A friend is easier lost than found.Doing is better than saying..Question–: What is the difference between buying exterior paint vs a paint that is used for both interior/exterior?
Is one more superior, coverage-wise, than the other? I am painting wood around my patio door that has been primed and I need to do inside and outside. So to kill two birds with one stone, I purchased the interior/exterior semi-gloss paint.

well you need to remember that more exterior paints and oils will be more resistant to sun light and so do not need to be repainted as often as interior paints. it should be fine if you are willing to repaint about every 6 months (which isnt really a big ask). its not like it will wash out over the period of the six months but to keep it at the same shade as the inside will be it will need to be reaplied.
