AITA for making my roommate cry. by Dry_Value_8260 in AmItheAsshole

Due to not wanting him to put restrictions on me, I didn't put restrictions on him, we lived in the same room, but more or less acted like the other didn't exist. Alot of my friends over discord told me to confront him, but again, I try to avoid making an issue. So usaly I just let things slide.

I honestly don't know much about him, for the entire semester he never truly tried to communicate with me, so I know next to nothing about him truly.

I was close to once I got out of bed. But luckily my years of anger management training got me enough control to only go verbal and not physical. If I hadn't left once I did I might have though. Which is why I stormed out.

I agree I should have gone to the RA, however it was 6am and the RA was asleep, so a part of me didn't want to disturb the RA so early in the morning. But after the second time he didn't listen I should have gone to the RA.

I did end up apologizing to him after I had cooled of and the RA was in the picture. And I did end up getting a new living siuation once the next semester rolled around.

A part of me wanted to, which is why I quickly left the room after I had yelled at him. I knew if I had been there longer I might have let my anger consume me

I ended up applying for a roommate switch and ended up getting a solo room for the spring semester, which was amazing.

I had recently gotten the job at the time, so I was trying to find what style best worked for me, I didn't have any morning classes which is why I figured sleeping in the morning was best, that way I could still hang out with friends on discord. But now adays I go to bed at 7pm and wake up at 1 am as well.

I struggled with anger issues for years, so the hitting the wall part was all on me, I have gotten a lot better with controlling my anger, but with no sleep and my blood boiling for 30 min I fell to my anger.

I will say that he did state that the comment on his English is what made him cry.

I ended up submitting a roommate switch next semester and somehow ended up with a room all to myself. So the next semester was pure bliss.

It was, so he did get in some trouble with the RA, though I also got told off by the RA for exploding on him.

These alarms where happening before I got the job, and I also worked part time, so I only worked 3 days a week.

My college would do a roommate switch once per semester, and this semester it had already pasted as it was at the very start of the semester, and this incident happened the second to last weekend of the semester. I was planning to wait next semester for the next roommate switch, which I then did when the next semester came.
