AITA for telling my roommate they can’t use my stuff without asking?

I share an apartment with a roommate. Over the past few weeks, I noticed they’d been using my things, like my headphones, snacks, and some kitchen gadgets, without asking.

At first, I ignored it, but it kept happening.

Yesterday, I politely told them that they need to ask before using my things.

My roommate got upset and said I was “being dramatic” and “not a good roommate.” They’ve been giving me the cold shoulder ever since.

I feel like it’s normal to expect people to ask before using someone else’s belongings, but now I’m wondering if I overreacted.

This roommate needs a refresher on acceptable social behavior.
