Confession. Five years ago, while I was on FACEBOOK, I decided to dedicate 15 minutes to be a decent person and submit to Reddit. Specifically, r/relationships. I now use my own throwaway account. I usually lurk. This is a terrifying experience. I’m currently in my company’s bathroom. I don’t have a FACEBOOK account. I usually sub-reddit on FACEBOOK.<br><br>I guess my main purpose is: does my actions make me an asshole?<br><br>This is what I did: <br><br>An anonymous person posted<br><br>Person B asks something about my (Person A) relationship, and I tell them I don’t answer personal questions.<br><br>Person B responds “Oh okay, it’s like I asked about your dick size or something”<br> <br>Person A responds “What’s his dick size” ? <br><br>...and I respond “r/roastme” <br><br>Five years later, person B reaches out to me. Person B says they don’t have FACEBOOK, but want to assure me that 1. They have no problem with me. 2. Their husband is the one who was roasted for the past five years. 3. Husband is ‘beyond pissed’ that I was the one who roasted him on his wife’s account<br><br>I don’t know how to respond. I don’t want to make enemies. I’ve never seen these people before in my life. I want to assure them that I’m a chill dude. I want to tell the husband that it was his wife’s account and not mine. But I don’t want to throw person B under the bus for the sake of looking like a decent person.<br><br>I’ve been hiding in this bathroom for the past 30 minutes listening to you guys, and have come to one conclusion: I’m a coward. I won’t tell them. Because I’m a coward. <br><br>I won’t even share his response as to not paint him in a bad light.<br><br>Edit:. I think I’ll answer to person B with something like “Don’t worry about me, I’m the one that wants to apologize. I’m willing to make amends” <br><br>I won’t apologize to husband. I’m still scared of him.<br><br>Edit 2:. I’m out of the bathroom. The post has been deleted. Thank you for the support and advise. My anxiety is gone. I’ll share the husband’s response if I can remember.<br><br>Edit 3: Husband’s response:<br><br>“You roasted my wife”<br>Me: your wife is fine<br><br>Husband: I’m gonna get you<br>Paul: Okay <br><br>5 years later, we’re still waiting<br><br>Edit 4: I think I might have to share this post with husband and wife. It’s spiraling out of control<br><br>Edit 5: I think I’m deleting this post. I didn’t expect this to blow up. I think I reached out to husband and person B. I think I’m not the asshole. I think I’m just a coward.
