My girlfriend just got back to her apartment from the gym, while I was finishing some schoolwork. She was making herself a protein shake in the kitchen and I was throwing away my smoothie cup I was drinking from earlier. I wanted to kiss her and she doesn't usually like PDA, so I briefly checked the living room area to see if her roommates were around and didn't see anyone, so I said gimme a kiss. She looked at me shyly but didn't say anything or make any gestures, so I assumed she was teasing me a bit, which we do to each other. I was being more insistent in a playful way but then she stopped interacting with me. I was confused with this and saw she had headphones, so I asked aloud if she can hear me. She then pulled out her phone and sent me a text saying that her roommate was in the room the entire time.
I have no idea how I missed her. I guess not getting enough sleep the night before had an effect or something, but the roommate walked to her room after this interaction, and now I'm realizing what a fucking creep I came off as. From her perspective, I asked for a kiss, presumably got rejected, got more 'aggressive', then assumed it was because she couldn't hear me.
In my defense, my girlfriend didn't make any obvious gestures that someone was in the room but again, I was sleep deprived so maybe she did and I'm a dunce for not picking it up. I'm still cringing at this interaction.
TLDR: I asked my girlfriend if I could kiss her in front of her roommate, she's not comfortable with PDA and I didn't know her roommate was there. I insisted and asked my girlfriend if she could hear me while her roommate was there. Definitely came across as a creep.
EDIT: My girlfriend isn't upset by this interaction at all, she understood that I had no idea her roommate was there after I talked to her about it. If anything she finds it pretty funny now. It's just my brain now paranoid that seeing her roommate from now on is gonna be weird as hell but that ultimately doesn't matter.
Uhhhhh there’s a difference between not wanting to snog in front of people, but a quick kiss after getting home? That sounds like something she needs to work on, it’s perfectly normal and healthy. And it’s unhealthy for you to just be expected to never receive any mild affection in front of other people.

Or talk about it first? Try to figure out what the root cause is and work on it?
