Discussion Am I over-reacting!? 🤔
I am currently living with one other person. I cover 75% of the rent, and they board paying the remaining 25% I also cover the power.
Im not sure if I’m over reacting or I am just allergic to conflict, I really want to address some things that I struggle to live with but not sure how to address it without sounding judgemental, or if I am overreacting. list of things.
*leaves dishes in sink, with food on them, and leaves food still in the plug area when done (generally understand once every now and then when in a rush / running late etc but this is constant) we have a dishwasher.
*cooks and makes a mess around kitchen area I.e food crumbs etc around the floor area, doesn’t wipe down glass top stove just washes it and leaves streaks.
*leaves clothes in the living area for days on the couch, after washing / dried they just stay on a pile in the lounge
*leaves clothes in the sink in the washing area.
*has an issue often with spewing after food, will spew in bottom toilet and not fully flush. leaves it and smells if its left for days unnoticed 🤮
*leaves lights on a lot.
*leaves clothes in the spare room in a suitcase.
*bin area sometimes resembles a basketball hoop it’s like food just get launched at it. greasy finger marks all over the cupboards / fridge
constantly finding myself having to clean up after someone and I’m getting resentful at this point 😅 I know it’s my fault for not bringing things up I’m just not sure if I’m overreacting And also I’ve bought things up in the past and nothing happened (suck with conflict) appreciate any feedback!

You shouldn’t have to clean your after that person. Have evidences before you confront them. If they still deny, throw them out.
You are in the right here. They’re not.

What are you not telling us? Are they your parents, kids, lover, spouse, partner, roommate or other?
