The Redditor (OP) recently shared on the r/AmItheA**hole subreddit that she found herself in a sticky situation after a seemingly harmless decision to let her boyfriend use a roommate's bathroom.
The OP detailed that she had her boyfriend over. Suddenly, both the OP and her boyfriend needed to use the toilet at the same time, so she told him to use her roommate's instead. However, she didn't know that this kicked off a heated argument.
After the OP's roommate knew that a stranger used her toilet, she got angry and accused the OP of not respecting privacy. What the roommate said left the OP questioning whether she was wrong or just that her roommate overreacted. Scroll down to read the entire story.
