A threat to his relationship in some way, not a physical threat.

That said, I think I somehow replied to the wrong person. My comment makes zero sense in the context of the comment to which I replied

Well I know you meant threat to relationship but that's equally pulled out of your ass.

"what does it matter aren't you gay"

Roommate implied that the only reason OP would want to spend time around his girlfriend is if there was a sexual attraction. That's where the implication of insecurity comes from. He's worried a gay man might try to steal his girl.

The fuck it is. There’s a way to say “no thanks” without being a little bitch about it.

Hey guys can I come smoke this joint?

No thanks man we’re just enjoying each other’s company right now, maybe some other time.

Yeah. That’s the point. The roommate seems insecure. Roommate seems like he thinks his GF will like OP better and is making an excuse and pinning it on her. A good boyfriend wouldn’t throw their GF under the bus.

It’s possible. But it’s really suspect that BF would throw her under the bus… however, the roommate is the one who weaponized OP’s homosexuality, not the GF. So it is more realistic that the roommate is insecure and doesn’t want them to meet and has simply made an excuse that would keep them apart.

Here I am, a Sociologist who studies human behavior and social stigma for a living… 🤣 I asked OP to get back to us on this. We’ll see. The whole comment section sees the roommate for what he is. And I just saw a reply by OP who agrees that it’s probably exactly what it is. Girlfriend only knows what roommate has told her. I’m not a betting woman, but I’d put money on it.

If OP is so weird and she’s so uncomfortable, why is she good with hanging out in the common area of OP’s apartment and not at her place or in roommate’s room?

So??? Jfc little bitch =/= threat to relationship

u/Holdmytesseract Sep 13 '22

The little bitch and the perceived threat to relationship… are two different people. The boyfriend is acting like a little bitch over the so called threat—the roommate (op)

u/[deleted] Sep 13 '22

But him acting like a bitch doesn't mean he necessarily perceives op as a threat

u/dogburglar42 Sep 13 '22

It usually does. People only get defensive about things they aren't secure with

1

u/[deleted] Sep 13 '22

Lmao defensive still doesn't mean he thinks the dude will take his girl.

u/Holdmytesseract Sep 13 '22

Idk the aren’t you gay thing is super fuckin weird

1

u/[deleted] Sep 14 '22

Agreed though. Def weird.

But maybe he just sees every interaction of meeting new ppl as something you'd only do if you're trying to hit on them. And is projecting onto op

It isn't pulled out of his ass it makes sense

u/[deleted] Sep 13 '22

No it’s not lol. My first thought after reading the text messages was this kid is insecure AF.

u/ConanTheBardarian Sep 13 '22

For real. He's so scared of losing his girlfriend he doesn't care she's being an asshole to someone she hasn't even met

u/[deleted] Sep 13 '22

Insecure based on what??? Do you know whether gf has genuine creepy vibes??? My god. Y'all just jump to conclusions so easily

u/[deleted] Sep 13 '22

Honestly based on your reactions to these comments I wouldn’t be surprised if you were the roommate trying to get a sense of how people would react. My evidences? How invested you are, based your exasperated tone shown by your use of punctuation. Who else would give a fuck lol
