Helicopter Roommate Demands A Chunk Of Redditor’s Property As Compensation For Moving Out
When leaving the residence, a disagreement over the belongings of each of the roommates may arise. It should be recorded when they decide to live together and use each other’s belongings because it can be challenging to split them between the two parties at the time of getting apart.
Op told a story about her entitled roommate, who thought OP should leave her some kitchen items as recompense for her moving out. OP had been sharing an apartment with three other girls for the past two years and planned to move out to a two-person flat with one of them. OP’s uncle owned a well-known cookware company and gave each of his nephews and nieces a kitchen accessory set when they moved into their own places. As OP prepared to go, she planned to pack everything she owned, including the kitchen things her uncle had given her, but her roommate refused to give her all of the kitchenware they had been using for the past two years. Read the narrative to discover OP’s approach for reclaiming her belongings from the entitled roommate.

OP should pack everything early or her roommate will try to hide the items she did not want OP to take with her. OP had already informed her roommates that no one should buy anything from her uncle’s brand in order to avoid confusion when it was time to move out. Her roommate may have been lying about getting anything from her uncle’s brand in order to force OP to leave some of her favorite kitchen items behind, but OP saw through her deception. It would be best to collect her belongings while her roommate was not there to avoid a disagreement. What is your perspective on the OP’s situation?
