Best day ever!

Today has got to be the best day I have had in a long time. I woke up and walked out to the kitchen. Room-mate accuses me of eating all of his blueberry pie(i didnt).
We start arguing and I dump his onions he was cooking on the floor. What are you going to do about it bitch, I say. He gets up and walks towards me, I know that look he has. This is my house he is in. I tell him to leave. He pushes me and I lost it and punched him in the nose. He gets me into a choke hold and starts pounding on my head. I got out of his hold and punched him again making him fall back on to the screen door. The whole fucking door just came off. Neighbors outside in their driveway. Blood on both of our faces and knuckles. I reach to grab my already broken phone to call the 911. He takes it from me and literally bends the damn phone almost in half.
We were planning on moving into a new apartment next week together with us splitting rent equally. That isn't happening anymore. I have no money to move out into an apartment and now no places set to move into. He moved out just today from this house. I don't have a phone anymore. I lost a friend I've known since grade 3 over a fucking blueberry pie.and a lot of other built up stuff. Still not advancing with the girl I like.

That sucks man hopefully things start getting better soon. Why dump his onions that he was cooking though? That's not going to help anything. You know when you have a woman things like that will happen and you'll have the urge to explode like you did. You have to stop yourself. It happened to me. I put holes in my wall of my own house that I own like my name was Kyle. It was pretty dumb.
Sorry for sounding like I'm lecturing you.

This is why you have to communicate better, when things build up unresolved, fights happen. You either have to communicate better or become the type of person who can let shit go, and really let it go, not pretend to yourself that you let it go.
Sorry you had a super fucked day.

Yeah rough day but Tmethyl's right. Not at all trying to make you feel bad, what's done is done and I think we've all had emotions get to us in such a way where we act out and regret it. Try to learn from it and just move forward as quick as you can because you can't erase it.

Doesn't seem like any good reason to lose a friend, IMO.

I honestly can't blame your friend at all.. he thought you ate his pie, so you threw his food on the ground and taunted him and then punched him in the face when he challenged you.
You deserve everything you got. There's some lessons in there to be learned.

One day OP may look back on this thread, and if he does I hope he’s in a place where he can realize how much of a blind ass he was at the time when it was posted. Many lessons indeed.

Time to eat a huge dose of humble pie and profusely apologize to your friend, IMO.

Bake a blueberry pie and give it to your friend and beg for forgiveness from the bottom of your heart. Regardless of what happened or who’s right or any of that. Take the high road - save a relationship. In this life Relationships are more precious than gold.
I had a similar situation occur in my life about 7 years ago. Not over food, but still. My friend and I parted ways...all over a stupid insignificant event...one based on 100% misunderstanding and ignorance.... she overdosed and died a year later. It’s taken years to come to terms with myself over how I handled the situation that day.
I remember her lovingly to this day & note the aforementioned as an example of how far off the path I was to allow myself to walk away from a friend, and vow to never repeat it.

This. A million times over, this.
I've lost plenty of relationships through my stubbornness or someone elses, and when the dust finally clears and you one day look back at what happened, I guarantee it won't be a good feeling that arises.

Yep. I do agree 100% that I should not of dumped his food. He constantly leaves messes He invites the rudest people over even when he asks and I say not today, maybe tomorrow. Always boring money and rarely repays. Eats my food all the time and when I ask him he denies it. He ate an entire loaf of bread. The expensive kind too. He's always desperately trying to assert his dominance even though we have declared that many times before. Arm wrestling, Shot for shot, tap out. He always loses and then blames it on something. Now that I think about it he wasn't even that good of a friend. Just someone to help pay bills.
The blueberry pie was both of ours since we split the grocery costs. He got super stoned and ate half of it with a clean slice down the middle. Which to me indicates that the rest is mine.
I have definitely learned some things from this though

Could be worse. Sometimes even if you're friends with someone, you might be incompatible roommates generally. All of your problems with each other that you listed are due to living with each other, and not necessarily anything that might be an issue were you living separately. Have lived with several people who were good friends and after a few months it's just too much to be in the same living quarters. You'll have your moments here and there.

Yeah it's a lot easier to tolerate someone like that when you see them a few times a month, but living under the same roof...countless friendships have either been extinguished or were never the same again after being roommates.
