Depends on many factors. Do you all pay bills or is it all-inclusive? What is household chore distribution like? Is he generally reasonable beyond this? Do you live with more people that may be annoyed by this?

We all pay rent. Household chore distribution? I’m the only one who cares about cleaning the house. I clean it every weekend. He’s usually the kind of person who takes all the spaces for himself and feels like he’s some of authority because he’s the same nationality as the landlords. 😣
How confrontational are you willing to get? A buddy of mine once got pissed with his messy roommate that refused to clean so all his unwashed dishes and his mess started ending up in his bed sheets...
Honestly I am not looking for a fight because if I lose my temper it will be bad so I’m trying to be diplomatic here. But if it doesn’t work I’ll probably move.
I'm not sure if it's the same where you are, but leaving early means those remaining are generally responsible for the lease. Landlords dont care to hunt down someone on the lease when they know where the remaining people love that are responsible.
Or you could avoid being a dick and put up with it until the lease is up. 🤷
I’ll wait until the contract is over to move
So, this is just a matter of overentitlement. Do your other roommates behave in a similar fashion?
No it’s just him but the landlords give him this power.
Have you guys considered taking a vote?
Tbh, if the landlords give him that entitlement, I would just move. Sorry, to hear about this, though. Smh. 🤨
Sounds like a lose-lose situation.
For what it's worth, your roommate sounds like such a douche. 😅
He is. The thing is that I don’t want to fight with anyone because I want to live in peace. So I’m trying to talk and solve things nicely,in a diplomatic way. If it doesn’t work, I’ll start being bitch. I have until March 2024 to find a new place.
Perhaps stop cleaning their living areas for a short time. Show them the value of having a clean living space. I'm a neat freak, too. Lol. I get it. It's different with guys, though. We get aggressive with each other. 😅
He won’t care. Pigs enjoy the dirt. I am a clear and sparkling creature that doesn’t fit the environment so I will leave. 😊 As soon my contract is over.
Lol. I never understood how people are comfortable living in filth. They see all the mold and everything that begins to form over time and they're still like "OK! That's fine!". 🤷♂️😅
You cannot teach the fly that honey is better than shit. People act accordingly to their nature. That’s what I learned. 😉
