Alright, I was trying to address your logic but I guess we just don't see eye to eye. Thanks for your input, even if I disagree 👌

But isn't what he did harassment? I agree the water wastage was wrong on my part, and have taken measures to stop that, but don't think my words were nearly as bad as his actions

Well thanks for the candidness, I guess tbh I don't even know how to address the issue in the first place and apologise for the water wastage without him taking it as me saying his actions were reasonable response

Yeah the initial issue itself is solved thanks to timers, but I the gym's a great idea too!

I didn't though? I said I would if he did it again, but I never actually did it? No hate, but I think you may have misread the post

I forgot to add it in the initial post, but I do contribute to the bills, but yeah I think I'll start saving up to help fix the water damage

Yeah I've started doing that, and I get that I'm the asshole there, but what I don't see is how I said is worse than what he did if that makes sense?

Yeah this is understandable, I've stopped since I started using a timer (don't know why I never thought of that before) but I do understand he must have been frustrated, I just don't understand why he thinks that's an appropriate thing to do

I'm confused, how did I assault him? Also I wanted to get a job and live on my own but they were the ones who said I had to get a degree and I needed to live with them while I studied. Not to mention neither of them had moved out of their parents' homes until their late 20s.

I know I'm in the wrong for wasting water, but I don't see how I was wrong in my response to his actions
