maybe i’m just a communist but i can’t stand roommates who don’t believe in sharing. baby this is a 4 person suite that is only supposed to accommodate 3 - we don’t have the space for everyone to have their own kitchen, cleaning, and bath supply set!

If you guys are randomly assigned you can’t really blame someone for not wanting to share items if they don’t know you & if you never communicated beforehand about what everyone is bringing, they’re gonna want to make sure they have everything they might need. I understand that space is tight, maybe you could ask if there’s anything large like an air fryer that might take up a lot of space if there’s a way to share something like that. Otherwise, I get it, but they’re entitled to their own items

I have insane germophobia and contamination anxiety so I keep my own dish ware, but I don’t store it in any shared spaces tho 😞 I understand why people do it, but i agree, sharing would be so much more practical

Divide up the space into fourths. If they are in their own space let them do what they want

Ngl it sounds like you just wanted to use somebody else’s stuff instead of just get your own.

Like I get it but this is also with a really horrible roommate in mind so I don’t have a lot of grace for them. They didn’t want to share anything so bad we had at least two of every major cleaning supply like brooms, mops, vacuums, lysol, and TOILET BRUSH- Literally two toilet brushes in our 4x4 bathroom because they had an “every man for themselves” approach

Yes we legitimately had at least two of everything because the bitch was selfish, stingy, and a liar. I’m not the person who will chief off community shit and not replace it when it’s my turn, and they knew that. I ended up having to prematurely buy all new dish soap, sponges, toilet brush, shower cleaner, bleach, and somehow acquire a broom, vacuum, and mop set, AND a new fridge because the hoe didn’t want a rm and instead of moving out and getting a single, they took it out on us

This was all stuff we agreed to share because it makes sense to, and randomly one day they hid ALL of it - I heard them otp with their mother and they said “My roommates are stealing my things and I don’t want to share because I shouldn’t have to. We have separate lives. We should just mind our own business.” So when it was my turn to clean the bathroom, literally everything was gone because it was their turn to replace the supplies so they thought it would be cool to take everything…
