AITA for telling my B-friend to get over my (second) fake suicide attempt?

Summary:

I (27 M) am in a highly successful band with my B-friend (29 M) As you could probably guess that causes some conflict! We often get into fights, break up for a couple weeks, but we come to the same conclusion every time; He needs me and my assets.

AITA for telling my B-friend to get over my (second) fake suicide attempt?

I (27 M) am in a highly successful band with my B-friend (29 M) As you could probably guess that causes some conflict! We often get into fights, break up for a couple weeks, but we come to the same conclusion every time; He needs me and my assets.

So, to the main meat of the post, we got into a fight as of recent. He wanted to cut down band rehearsal hours on mondays, he said it was because of some girl he was talking to. I said no. I don’t want any G-friends getting in the way of the band. He blew up at me, saying that I “limit” his relationships with others. The whole debacle ended with him storming out of our apartment

I got reminded of a past fight we had, and by extension how I mended it, of which ended with me fake hanging myself. I think you can see where this is going.

This time I had to do something different, he would suspect the some old trick! This time, I stole a bottle of sleeping pills he stored in the bathroom cabinet, scattering a few across the ground, emptying the rest into the trash, and I put a small bar of soap under my tongue so my mouth could be foamy (Still proud of that part, LOL!))

I had the whole scene set up! Me lying on the ground. (I can be a very good actor) Even better, when he came home, he had a girl with him. When he opened that door, both of them were fuuucking floored!! I jumped up at them and the girl ran away SCREAMING! I expected him to start laughing but he got actually got mad at me. I only then remembered it was a Tuesday. He got super pissed that I ruined his chance at free pussy. I told him to get the fuck over it and come play some Mario Kart (like we do :)) Instead he flipped me the bird and now he’s refusing to speak to me!

Reddit, Am I the asshole? I’m hoping I can send this thread to him after my innocence gets proven by Reddit. Thank you

I pray that your bandmates get away far far away from you as fast as possible if any part of this story is even a little bit true. The way you talk about this guy is downright dehumanizing. You must be an absolute wizard on the guitar or some shit if you got him to stay for this long

You sound fucking stupid LOL. For one, it’s **bandmate** not bandMATES. We are a two person band. Two, I don’t play instruments. I do a spoken word kind of thing, he likes it.

YTA on every level here. Ignoring how very obviously manipulative this is, how long have you known your friend?? To stay with someone after they fake suicide once is insane but the concept of staying after it happens TWICE??

I call bullshit on this post just for that honestly. No sane person would entertain this person’s whim willingly for even a day

Me and my bandmate met in boys school. I don’t think you read my post though HAHA. In it I say CLEARLY he’s very codependent on me. he needs me dearly so he that’s why he keeps me around.
