50 Times People Realized They Were Living With A ‘Monster’ And Just Had To Share The Evidence
You wake up and head to the bathroom. The door is locked, and your sister has just begun taking her 30-minute shower where she'll sing loudly for the whole house to hear and use up the last of the hot water. You go to eat some breakfast first instead. You pour a bowl full of cereal and open the fridge to grab some milk. Upon picking up the carton, however, you realize that there’s no more than a drop left in it. No problem, you had leftover pancakes too– Oh! Just kidding! Your sister ate those too and left a note in their absence detailing how delicious they were and requesting that you pick up milk on your way home from work.
Living with family members can be a challenge, to say the least. You’re supposed to love them unconditionally, but sometimes, they really test the limits of that love. But if you know what it’s like to have a sibling, parent or spouse with infuriating living habits, know that you’re not alone. Because below, you’ll find evidence of some of the most frustrating and questionable situations people have found themselves in, courtesy of their "kind and thoughtful" roommates.
Keep reading to find an interview with licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Jude Bijou, and be sure to upvote the pictures that remind you why you decided to move away from home. Then, if you’re looking for another Bored Panda list proving that some people live with absolute monsters, you can find that right here!

Agreement I have with my mom is that if she's concerened about something, she talks to me about it first. And then if we need to, we go through the device together. That way, I can still have privacy and she can know I'm safe and we can address any problems as a team.

Knives never go into dishwasher. It can dulled the blade as the pressures from the water will dislodged everything and bumped into each other. And higher water temperature can affect it as well. With ridges like the top part, you will need to use brush and do it gently, when you wash it.
