 So here's the thing, I live in a house of 4, we are all at university, we split bills and each individually pay our own rent.

At the start of the year there were 3 of us, we've all known each other pretty well so we shared plates and cooking equipment. This was fine considering all 3 of us were generally clean people, if things were unwashed they generally would be washed within 24 hours and wouldn't be more than 2-3 plates.

A few months ago we finally found a fourth housemate, let's call him Brandon. Brandon didn't have many pans or cooking equipment so was very happy when he realised we share most things in the house. He's the type of person that eats 5 meals a day, has managed to get himself in so much dept he can barely afford food at the moment or in this case sometimes his mother pays for it.

He does not wash things properly, assumes we share food and doesn't let us know afterwards what he's used. Much of my cooking equipment has been destroyed or damaged because he leaves them dirty for more than a day during which I can't use them. He does not take conformation well and will cause an argument as he has so far. In the past I've asked him not to use something of mine but was ignored because "he was super fucked high of his ass" and used it anyway.

A lot of things he does to the rest of the house frustrate me but if I keep going on about this I will genuinely be typing for hours. Either way I have an idea to give him a week to start using things properly around the house otherwise I ask not to share cooking equipment anymore, that from now on we only share plates and I clearly double wash my utensils because who the heck wants to be eating soap really, he just won't rinse the soap off them no matter how much someone in the house says he should.

WIBTA if I withdraw sharing pans knowing that he has none and is in a very difficult financial situation but my equipment and things are no longer getting further damaged? Considering I barely get to use them since most of them are dirty when I wish to use them now. I understand that he has fucked himself financially at the moment and I am sure this will cause many issues for him so I can see how this may be a giant asshole move. But I'm tired of not being able to use my things? So WIBTA?
