Boyfriend snaps and yells at me. Do I deserve it?
My bf gets mad over things I think aren't a big deal such as...
Me not being there when he wakes up, he hates waking up alone. And instead of expressing that in a calm manner, he snaps yells at me, slams doors. Is that really worth a fight? He sleeps in really late and I get bored! So I go into the living room and hangout with his roommates or just be on my phone.
Or sometimes I fall asleep on the sofa, rather on the bed with him ( sofa is in his room) because I'm feelings sick- my period usually and he gets really mad at that- tells me I should just sleep at home
He gets mad if I leave go home early, mind you it's a Sunday and I had spent the whole weekend at his house, and I get a ride home and I really have no control or say when to get picked up. He yells at me, huffs and puffs and gets so frustrated over it. He wants me to wake up him so we can spend time together but I never end up doing that because my ride calls me last min.
Are these legitimate reasons to get really really mad? He doesn't get normal mad or sad he gets pissed, 0-100 I guess he doesn't know how to express himself any other way. He hollers in my face, when I walked away from him last time because he was telling me not to come over again, just because I left early I got my bags walked out of his room, he dragged me from my coat and shut the door.
I read this and it doesn't seem like a big deal to me, but somehow he convinces me that I'm the *******...I just need someone to confirm to me if its me or him?

He sounds either needy or unstable. I'd write him off.
Why do people get unstable like this? I also think it's needy...his ex used to live with him I think he may be one of those people who needs someone there all the time. I don't know, I'd love to understand why he gets like this. I remember waking up and he wasn't there, it felt kind of *****y but it was fine I didn't tell him anything. Because it's not that big of a deal to me.

Not sure. But at any rate this behavior is not sustainable.
no. alarm bells would go off. if he acts this crazy and controlling when you aren't even living together it would only get more extreme and more often when your relationship stepped up a level. i wouldn't accept this behaviour. be a strong woman.
a normal reaction to waking up alone would be to feel a bit sad and text your partner "miss you, wish you were here".. not go off the rails.

I think that's why he acts the way he does...because we only see each other on the weekends although I spent five days at his house before and he still gets mad at petty things like that. He says the way I act isn't normal.

I am a student but my ex worked weekdays in the city so I only saw him on weekends, he never acted this way because the way your boyfriend acts is not a normal response. you aren't the one who isn't normal! honestly this sounds like quite a manipulative relationship.
You've asked 'do I deserve it'. We allow ourselves to be treated badly by other people - if you don't want to be treated like you-know-what, then don't tolerate it.

He says stuff like " nothing will change" because I keep doing it. That's why I think maybe I deserve it...like I know he will get mad and I still do it but I don't do it deliberately, like when I have to go home. Or when I fall asleep on the sofa it's because I'm hot and cramping and need space.
I forgot to mention he also hates it when I walk out the room to be alone, like we'll be hanging out playing dominos with a group of people, when the games done I'll go back into his room to be alone and he thinks that isn't normal? What's wrong with wanting to be alone for five mins?

Please believe me when I say that you absolutely, categorically do NOT deserve this, or to be treated so shabbily. From what you've said, your BF has some issues around control and domination. Please don't allow him to treat you like this - can you confide in a close friend?
Yeah, don't tolerate this rubbish. Either have a chat and tell him it's unreasonable, or cut him loose.

Turning to alcohol seems a bit extreme.

No this isn't something I'd talk about in real life it's too embarrassing.

I can't decide whether this is sarcasm or a case of TSR's highly literal user base striking again.

If you must know, it's me taking the piss out of a (probably) British person using Americanisms. Gets on my bollox
