I live with 3 other people. I always do the dishes and clean up the whole place. all my food and kitchen items get used and then left dirty also they don’t know how to flush the toilet or put away food correctly or wash dishes+ utensils correctly. 😐

This happened to me when I moved in. I asked them multiple times to clean better. They even damaged my cookware without saying anything. Eventually I told them to get their own things and stop using mine. They were upset but it’s for the best. I couldn’t keep coming home to clean up after them, make myself food, then clean again. I still clean the whole place, but I know of if I asked them to help out they wouldn’t or they’d do a bad job 🫤

keep your dishes in your bedroom!! it's a bit inconvenient but it's worth it so that they stop using them. also if possible maybe grab a cheap mini fridge to keep in your room or buy a fridge lockbox so they can't use your food otherwise just stop cleaning, only clean up after yourself and let them rot

Moral of the story, but up boundaries and make it livable for you. I can’t get out of this lease so I’ve just done everything I can to avoid sharing stuff and make my space my own little sanctuary

no exactly tho. like I tried to speak to them and it’s like nothing works. it’s honestly draining at this rate having to do everything and constantly buy or replace stuff

I 100% would hide my stuff in my room if I had the storage for it but I don’t. I also don’t have the money at the moment to buy something like that💀💀

maybe just keep the most important stuff in your room then? like your pan or if you have a favorite mug you can buy a fridge lockbox for under $20! totally get if that's not feasible though
