I have become that room mate we all secretly fear
What do you mean by that?
I am my worse fear.
Try to change and explain the situation to your roommate. I am sure, it is just a misunderstanding.
I think I will just ignore the issue and think that nothing is happening.
I don't suggest that you ignore my advice so that you don't end up fearing yourself and thinking badly about yourself. If you have issues with you or your roommate, then it is a must that you resolve it before it gets worse or someone may get hurt with it. I hope you luck and I hope you resolve this.
