Housemate Anna spends $300 on sale clothes, then demands her 23-year-old roommate fund her groceries: ‘She had eaten almost all of my leftovers and made dinner using a bunch of my ingredients’

Living with roommates comes with a constant need to sell yourself on a dream of rent cut in half, bills split clean, and a fridge where everyone minds their own shelf. Reality hits when one half of the duo mistakes the shared kitchen for her personal safety net, money plans vanishing under a pile of sale tags until someone else's lasagna becomes a lifeline.

Flatmate Anna walked through the door last week in new shoes and bargain sweaters, bragging the haul only cost three hundred. The boast felt harmless until the fridge looked like a crime scene, and her 23-year-old, financially responsible roommate's leftovers were missing. Budget confession followed: the food fund was gone, eaten by retail therapy, and payday sat a week away.

A small favour turned into an open buffet. Anna's roommate returned from work to find pasta pots scrubbed clean, sauce jars empty, and one Anna pleased with her own chef skills. She asked for a grocery loan next, the request wrapped in friendly guilt with a reminder that her roommate earns more and should share the wealth. She skipped the part where budgets stay balanced by not treating credit cards as closets.
AITJ for not paying for my roommates groceries after she spent her food money on clothes?

She declined, polite but firm, and the apartment temperature dropped ten degrees. Anna now claims moral high ground, calling her selfish and classist while avoiding the checkout lane of accountability.
