Sharing a home with someone can be a great way to save money on rent and utilities, but it can also push you to the very edge of your limits.
The subreddit 'Choosing Beggars', a place where people shame those who are being way too picky when asking for things, has plenty of types of recurring characters. There's the shameless parent who uses their child's birthday as leverage for negotiation, the art "critic" who lowballs every piece they get their eyes on, and many, many more.
But among these infamous personas, roommates are arguably one of the most frustrating. Whether it's disagreements over household chores, personal space, or guest policies, they have the ability to quickly become a painful source of stress.

Reminds me of a coworker I once had when I was a janitor. Regularly put trash in my bucket, but one night I put a used pair of gloves in his bucket, instead of walking all the way around the truck. When I wasn't looking, he went out of his way to put them in my bucket, because the moron wasn't about to carry my trash for me. Quitting that miserable job was the best decision I've ever made.

I would turn off all electricity in their room and block all access to any of it. Then I would tell them pay or move. If I'm stuck with this bill then you're not gonna use any of it period.
Chances are that if we do not become kinder to one another, there will be many more similar screenshots. American adults are increasingly sharing a home with other adults with whom they are not romantically involved.
This arrangement, known as “doubling up” or shared living, gained notice in the wake of the Great Recession, and the prevalence of shared living has continued to grow since.

Hellsbunnies TV 2 years ago
I side with the room mate, I think most people would. If you were a couple it would be different but they aren't. Further more how presumptive and ride to think just because they earn more. If they had a bigger room, fine but that is worked out when you first occupy the property. OP is the arsenal's here. They are the person in the previous post, the one demanding non-diet soda, when their roommate was having to cough up for their food. This is the same with rent.
While the rise in shared living during and immediately after the recession was attributed in large part to a growing number of Millennials moving back in with their parents, the longer-term increase has been partially explained by a different phenomenon: parents moving in with their adult children.
In 2017, for example, nearly 79 million American adults (31.9% of the entire adult population) lived in a shared household. For comparison, in 1995, the earliest year with comparable data, the number stood at just 55 million (28.8%), and in 2004, at the peak of homeownership and before the onset of the home foreclosure crisis, 27.4% of adults shared a household.

The Gag Is...she Had Already Eaten All My Hash Browns The Night Before, This Text Was Just An Attempt To Cover Her Ass!
Thegoodboi 2 years ago
When I had a roomie, I had to stay at his place for a while until his lease was up. Everything was smooth, I had what I had, he had what he had. As soon as we got a place together, it got so bad that I had to put a mini fridge in my room with a lock on my door and I just stayed in my room to block off all the stench from the rest of the apartment he created and to stop him from stealing my food. Just when you thought you knew someone, never again 😅

IMO, asking permission (politely notwithstanding) after you've already DONE SOMETHING WRONG isn't polite at all. It's even more rude than just not saying anything. It's basically saying "I don't give a shiz what you are going to say or how you feel about it, because I just went and did it anyway, and I don't even feel guilty or I'd have apologized for doing it instead of LYING to you as well as eating food that isn't mine." It's like somebody stealing something from a store, and then asking the store "Can I have this for free?" It's incredibly insulting, insensitive, and a complete lie, as the perpetrator already KNOWS they did the wrong action. EDIT: I never downvote the comments that I argue against. I'm not a petulant child. I use my words to express my disagreement and opinion. I don't use downvoting. But sure, go ahead and blame me if that makes you feel better. As an aside, I'm not sure how I'm solely responsible for your comment having more than ONE downvote, but okay.

I appreciate you helping them out. If they ever trust you enough to let you pick them up, or come inside, it'd be fantastic if you could get the females at least corraled up and spayed. There's usually a humane society program or spay/neuter clinic that will do it for free or extremely cheaply, especially if you tell them it's a catch&release of a feral colony. They'll also often loan you humane traps to use to do so. I always support feeding the unfortunate animals that get abandoned or are born to abandoned pets, but the most good we can ever do on that front it spaying the females.

I do think it's OK to give money at times, but like my best bud says, don't ever LEND money to friends or family. If they need it, and you have, and you're willing to hand it to them, just GIVE it to them. If they give you money later, then that's great, and if not, you largely avoid the unhappiness that results from lending money and never being paid back, because you gave it without the expectation of it being returned.

They are raised to believe they are superior to most people and those who do not meet their standards are not worthy of their time or respect. I say this as someone who has NPD because they were psychologically abused by a parent with GCS. My sister was my dad’s favorite and she’s just like him.

Fun fact: The IQ test was originally developed in France, as a test to find learning disabilities in students. It was brought to the U.S., translated to English, and marketed as a test of intelligence. Then, every one failed it. So, it was reconstructed, with activities and situations more familiar to American life. So with this information what you will.

This Girl Took Her Roommate's Mercedes On An 86+ Hour Roadtrip

I have a niece like this. Let her borrow my car and couldn’t figure out how she was going through a tank of gas in a day! Like 900 kms in a day??? she had the audacity to say ‘I didn’t know’ and boy did I just shake my head for days.

Michelle not trying to be mean but this is the 2nd comment in a row where you have said you would go to the landlord. I am a property manager and you have given bad advice both times. Her going to the landlord is absolutely pointless as that is not the landlords business to determine who's room is what and what belongings each person has therefore the landlord would do NOTHING in this situation again. Yes the police could arrest them for invasion of privacy but the Landlord NO! please read up on the terms of a lease/contract as well as the penalties for breaking a lease before you tell these people to keep running to their landlords. All that is going to do is give them a bad rental history and that will be a problem in the future when the next person ask for a rental reference. I doubt any of these posters have $8k minimum to break a lease. Your advice is the same as a Karen "can I speak to your manager?"

The dynamics of shared living can be quite complex, often leading to unexpected tensions. In situations where roommates face challenges such as shared expenses or personal space, it's essential to find effective solutions. If you're dealing with similar issues, exploring ways to establish boundaries and prevent misunderstandings can be crucial.
Consider how boundaries are sacrosanct when it comes to shared living spaces, and how maintaining these boundaries can prevent conflicts.

Is kinda a lot that OP has to say but roommate acts a bit like a douche. We don't know how they got to this place either. It seems like they need to have a face to face conversation, but I definitely know what it's like to try to talk with someone who speaks like the roommate and has mannerisms as such also. Such as making leading, gaslighting, or manipulative statements and then just walking away and refusing to speak to one another as adults. So you can't make any headway towards resolution. They don't seem to want to clarify the situation so you can move on. They seem to prefer to keep things in a murky and stagnant area where you're always left guessing. I hope OP finds some resolution.

I was in a dorm by myself freshman yr. First roommate had some sort of crisis. So, I was sleeping and all of a sudden someone comes in and tells me they are my new roommate. College never informed me. Email or regular mail. Ok...so I help her move ALL her stuff in. (She was being kicked out of her apartment by her roommates). The fridge/freezer I had in my room, I purchased (not rented). Told her she can use half of it until she gets her own. Next time I opened it, I saw it packed with all of her stuff. She took all of my diet cokes out! Ya...called my dad. A week later she was gone. Wake me up...ok. I'll help move, give you space. One rule: Don't touch my Diet Cokes.
