It couldn't run forever, I guess
When I started my roommate blog, I was convinced that my roommate would find it within a month or two, and then I would deal with it as it came then. After about 3 months, I realized that since we didn't really have mutual friends, and I keep this blog quasi-anonymous (nowhere do I mention where we are stationed or what our names are, much less what our jobs or units are), I really started to think that it would die out on its own accord, and then I would get a new roommate and possibly start over again.
So he found out and confronted me, and we exchanged some words. He is understandably upset, and I'm looking at the evolution of the site itself over the last 6 months - it started off in a pretty joking manner, but made a turn towards bitter and resentful in the last few posts. Somewhere I stopped trying to be funny and just vented frustration. Part of it was some other personal stuff that came up. But rest assured, I have kept from making fun of things that I thought he would be sensitive about, and let me tell you, I have a ton of stuff that I decided couldn't go on my roommate blog in good taste. Things that were personal in nature (that by the way, he never should have shared with me, because I don't care and it wasn't funny enough).
I will accept full responsibility for my actions and will see what happens next. We're almost definitely not going to be living in the same room by the weekend, and I'll have to see what disciplinary action that I will receive.
