AITA for not hanging up my call when my roommate couldn't sleep?
I just moved into a new apartment with this guy. He's generally pretty strict and has a low tolerance for everything. Last night he went to bed around 10pm and requested I keep it down when talking with my friends online. I listened to him and kept my volume down to a low talking level.
About 15 minutes later he walked into my room and told me to quiet down more. I listened to him and lowered my volume to a whisper. 15 minutes later he walks in again and this time just tells me to hang up the call because he can't sleep. I refuse and just try to whisper quieter.
He obviously got mad at me because when I checked my phone an hour later, I had around 6 messages from him telling me that no matter how loud I speak he can hear through the walls, so I should hang up so he can sleep.
My perspective is that I don't want to speak to my friends less because HE can't sleep without any noise. I understand him being mad if I was being loud, but I sincerely was whispering and never raised my voice or made any loud noise at all. I feel like it isn't my responsibility to accommodate his low sound tolerance, he should just get a fan or play some white noise or something.
But I kinda understand his perspective too and wanted to know what you guys think.
Am I the asshole?
