I was lurking on this forum unregistered for a while but I saw this post and thought "Ok, I have to reply to this one"
So my experience with a college dorm went like this. I got into a college in the same town where I live but I decided to try out living in dorm anyway. How bad could it be I thought? Well, I got to share one room with three other dudes. Two NTs and one literal chad. It all went smoothly for the first two days. Then we got into a conflict on a lights out time. I need at least 8 hours of sleep to function properly, I can't comprehend how all the normies here were staying up almost all night if they had to wake up early next day. Well, they were skipping early classes and sleeping on lectures when I was there actually studying, so maybe that's how. Anyway, I was trying to set a fixed lights off time, but the normies were against it and the chad didn't care at all (his sleep schedule was similar to mine but unlike me he could sleep with lights on and noise around him). Still trying to stand my ground, I just kept turning the lights off since the switch was close to my bed. Seething normies weren't happy with that and started shouting at me, attracting more normies from the hall. Eventually a big crowd gathered and they were all ridiculing me, while I tried to save the last pieces of my dignity. It felt like I failed one of those Authority skill checks in Disco Elysium, I just couldn't fold and had to keep standing my ground until it became a total shitshow. I went as far as threatening them to tell the dorm administration about this, after that normies did let me sleep but everyone obviously disliked that. 2 NTs I lived with kept waking me up at night, so I moved to another, unoccupied room. It was in a very bad condition and there were no furniture, but I had no choice. Then these 2 and a couple of their friends kept kicking my door open at night and running away, waking me up and not letting me sleep. When I tried to confront them about it but they just dismissed my words and kept saying they weren't doing anything. Eventually I recorded it on camera (this dorm had no CCTV) and they noticed it, didn't say anything and just left. Ten minutes later they stormed in my room, surrounded me and threatened to beat me if I don't delete the video, so I had to delete it. They kept standing there, humiliating me and calling me weird, delusional, and one of them, I kid you not, called me an incel right in my face. Never in my life I was called an incel IRL before. This felt worse than a punch in the gut, because this whole interaction had nothing to do with foids, yet he still figured out. This was the time when I realized, yeah, they just know. Everybody knows. They left me alone after that, so at least I wasn't beaten. I moved back to live with my parents the next day.
