I didn't sign up to be anyone's "mom." I work all week so that I can buy the specific foods that I like and that suit my dietary needs, only to find that my roommate is digging into my supply, often more than I am or before I even get a chance to; since he is at home all week while I am working, I can't really keep an eye on my stuff. An example: I bought a $5 12-pack of string cheese so that I could take one to work with me a couple days a week. Within one week, I had eaten one, and there was only one left! He never asks, or even acknowledges it. It would be okay if we could both contribute and share, but there is nothing of his I could take - he never buys anything!
The worst part is that he eats fast food all the time, so he doesn't really care about what he's eating. I do, so I put a lot of money into the food I eat. He takes my quality stuff, but is perfectly content to eat an unhealthy fast food meal. It's really annoying because I'm just throwing money away and now I can't even get what I want. I think I've started going crazy or something because I've started avoiding buying things I know he likes, even though I really like them too, keeping packages sealed until I absolutely want to open them, or just to have them around so he can't eat them without me knowing, like almost daring him to open them, and tracking and accounting for everything I eat.
I'm way to nervous to say anything about it... what can I do?
