Going to college is an exciting time for any student. Between independence and making new friends, life after leaving the nest should be a positive experience.This is not the case for a young woman Reddit“Am I A** Hole” (AITA) forum, ask her if she overreacted by asking for a new roommate.
“So I (layer 18) is a freshman in college, I didn’t like it until recently!” u/throwaway65677568 writes in String“But I found that I had an embarrassing problem when I was drinking. I wet the bed. It was really a humiliation for me and made me very self-conscious.”
She went on to explain that she was not “drowsy, but alcohol disturbs her bladder while sleeping. This has happened about 5 times since I went to school,” she said. “The third time it happened, my roommate discovered that I was trying to hide the evidence. I begged her not to tell anyone, and thought she was sympathetic.”
When the lady was having dinner with a friend, things took a turn for the better. She said: “We were discussing Halloween plans and a boy joked that I was bedwetting. I have never been so embarrassed in my life. I cried for a few hours, knowing that My entire circle of friends knows my problem.”
Redditor said she became so “angry and embarrassed” that she left school and then asked for a new roommate. The roommate texted that the woman was “dramatic,” and she went to Reddit to ask if her reaction was right or wrong. The Internet immediately stood aside.

u/tryandbereasonable14 commented: “In fact, it’s just that you can’t control your own wine. Knowing this and drinking too much anyway will make you less compassionate.” “Doing something you know will make you less compassionate.” Wetting the bed in a space shared with other people is also very rude and inconsiderate.”
The commenter continued: “If you drink to the point of peeing, you may go to the party very hard. This, coupled with your saying that you’like the party scene’ means you may just be wasting, despite your claims’ You didn’t even faint!’, by the way. Everyone has too many moments, but often do stupid things, and trash quickly becomes annoying.” At the time of writing, the post has received 17,000 great.
u/keeley_jones weighed and said: “It’s disgusting. Especially in the dormitory space. Often the bed gets wet, the OP’s mattress must be stinky. Eventually it will make the whole room smell.”
“Man, I had this type of roommate in my freshman year, and he is notorious for bedwetting-let me tell you, sharing a closet-sized room with this person is miserable,” added u/limpbiscuitsndtea .
However, some readers have different views and think this is a possible medical problem.
u/Doc-93 said: “I have seen things like low-grade chronic UTI, bedwetting after only a few drinks, so if you really didn’t faint, you really should see your doctor!”
“I have a friend and some of her siblings have similar problems. One of her brothers, who is notorious for frequent bedwetting after drinking, started wearing adult diapers when he went out. Work is like a charm,” you /just_add_cholula wrote.
