Living with an untidy and lazy roommate can be tough.

This man is the only one who cleans and buys supplies for the house. His roommate has never even bought toilet paper, and he ignores piles of trash.

Now the roommate is considering keeping the household supplies in his room, but is that going too far?

Check out the story below for all details.

AITA for buying household items and keeping them in my room?

I (22M) moved in with my roommate (32M).

Since then, I have been the only one buying stuff for the place.

These include toilet paper, trashbags, paper towels, handsoap, and condiments.

It’s basically everything considered communal in a roommate situation.

This man keeps the house clean and well-stocked.

I am also the only one who ever cleans.

I mop and sweep.

I clean the tub, toilet, kitchen, and the dishes.

But that’s beside the point.

He hit financial trouble.

I’ve hit a bit of a financial tight spot, and I could only really afford rent, groceries, and my phone bill.

We ran out of toilet paper and trash bags for a week, and he never bought more.

Don’t ask me what I had to do.

It was horrific, but I didn’t have the cash to buy what we needed.

His roommate still never bought anything for the house.

There’s no possible way he didn’t notice.

The moment I could, I bought more toliet paper but couldn’t get trash bags.

So he just kept adding to an overflowing trash can.

He was just letting stuff just fall onto the floor.

Now, he wants to keep the items he buys for the house in his room.

I am now out of that spot, and I’ve bought what we needed, but I’m genuinely considering keeping the trash bags, toilet paper, and paper towels and take them out of the communal spaces.

I’m thinking of just keeping them in my room.

His roommate doesn’t do anything.

I’m tired of being the only person contributing to this household.

He works from home. He’s a streamer.

All he does all day is sit on the couch and get high.

He blasts music and Tiktok reels over his speaker and then plays video games until 4 am on YouTube or something.

There’s no excuse for the roommate not to clean.

There’s no excuse for him not cleaning.

He should be noticing we need stuff.

Would I be the jerk?

I want to start keeping the toilet paper, trash bags, and whatnot that I buy in my room.

That roommate sounds horrible, disgusting and lazy. I’d suggest finding a better roommate.
