I know this is going to sound really petty, but does it bother you when people leave crumbs or other stuff in the butter, or jelly in the peanut butter, or stuff in the mayonaise or mustard? It does me,,my roomate does all of the above as well as drink from the milk container and water bottle then put it back in frig..It just grosses me out and I'm tempted to go off on her but don't want to create tension on the homefront..Or maybe I should..These habits are the ones I know about and I'm afraid to even think of what she does when no one is around..Do you say something or just go with the flow??

I have this problem with my BF.
I can take it normally, but then every two weeks his son comes for a weekend.
He is 12 years old, and is just as bad if not worse than his father. I have to clean everything, I have to make sure there are no crumbs on the floor, they don't see it!
It can be very annoying! When it bothers me, I tell them. But, it does not help.
I feel like the maid, the worse part is, this is my house! I pay the bills and I have to do everything to keep it clean too. Am I crazy??!
Let me answer for you. Yes!

No not crazy at all. You are just like me as I also feel like the maid. The only thing is that I'm still waiting for someone to show me where the time clock is and what day we get paid...Thanks for the post..

I'm fine with a few crumbs in the jam jar but your roommate should stop doing it since it bothers you. Just tell her it's your little pet peeve and you're uncomfortable using the mustard with crumbs all over it.

I know I should but I don't because she would just start babbling some stupid nonsense that would piss me off even further..I try to keep the peace as its important to live in harmony but have to tell you that this is the first and last roomate for me..I can't wait for the lease to be up and me and my dogs will move on. We'll make it somehow, financially,,Thanks for the response
