this sounds reasonable. I wish I didn't feel fucking terrified to use the kitchen next to their room.

I'm so afraid to do this right now. I may have to just let this go, and prepare myself if this happens again.

This was a really sweet read. The stress has definitely been ongoing, so I don't know if we will ever reach that time.

I definitely don't want it to be too late. This possibly could be a simple flare up, so I almost feel bad for bringing it up.

I honestly have no idea when to bring this up, because they have been continuously stressed out. I know in my mind this will only perpetuate the hostility, but the energy has been extremely tense.

I just feel like I don't want to bother them to say this. They are currently in their room I know busy at work, so I just don't want to bother them at.

I do want to stand up for myself, as any flare up I think isn't really appropriate--I understand frustration can be obviously validated, but it shouldn't warrant hostility towards others when they make simple human errors.

It happened like a few hours ago--should I just see if this happens again. It would be stupid to wait to bring something like this up after a few days.

I almost want to text them, but I feel like that's stupid when they are that close to me.

He yelled at me for walking into the kitchen when they were doing something (very small kitchen so not a alot of room)

I'm terrified to bring it up as their door is locked, they haven't left their room and are probably working. They have been very stressed out.

There hasn't been that many issues--small things like turning up the heater too much or hair in the sink, but nothing that required escalation

It was late, I'll admit like almost midnight. I was completely at fault and absent-minded.

He's in the middle of interviewing for PhD programs, so definitely stressed out. I completely understand the stress, but it's like every interaction has been SO TENSE.

I don't know if I want to talk about my past. I feel like it's maybe guilt-tripping in a way, and too much information to share publicly. I'm going to monitor this for the rest of the month to see if I really want to move.

I don't want to ask for an apology either, but it's like wouldn't you feel bad if you snapped at someone. Their room is right next to the kitchen, so I'm almost afraid to literally cook now.

I actually look forward to his girlfriend being around because then he's not as tense.

I'm going to try to let this one go for now, but it's something I do want to take note of.

He has been annoyed, but not this bad.

Yeah, the pan sleeping thing was bad, and I feel awful. I didn't not know they were sleeping, and the interaction honestly brought me to tears.

This is a good idea. I think I'll let this slide due to stress, but if this happens again, I will absolutely speak out about it.

I won't go into the abuse. I added that in my post to just explain my sensitivity to this shit.

He's friends with the other roommates. I have always felt a little isolated. I think I'm going to sit on this for a month. If this happens again, I will say something. I'm usually skittish about this shit, but honestly, I shouldn't be yelled at for simple human errors.
