Before Ryan, our apartment was a peaceful sanctuary amidst our hectic lives as a junior doctor and marketing professional. But when Jenna\u2019s boyfriend started raiding our fridge daily, it turned our harmonious home into a battleground over groceries and respect.\n
My name is Emma, and I\u2019m a junior doctor. Before Ryan, living with Jenna was harmonious despite our busy schedules. Our weekends were rare treats where we\u2019d enjoy lazy Saturday mornings, sipping coffee and catching up on each other\u2019s lives.\n
Ryan\u2019s daily visits and constant eating of my groceries turned this balance upside down. \u201cJenna, Ryan ate all my groceries again,\u201d I complained one night. She shrugged it off, \u201cHe\u2019s just hungry, Emma. He Venmo\u2019s you the money, doesn\u2019t he?\u201d But the money wasn\u2019t the point; it was about coming home to nothing left to eat after exhausting shifts.\n
Frustration boiled over. One evening, I confronted Ryan directly, \u201cRyan, you can\u2019t keep eating my groceries.\u201d He laughed it off, \u201cIt\u2019s just food. Chill out.\u201d\n
I decided to label everything in the fridge with absurdly high prices. Ryan was shocked but paid the inflated amounts. With the money, I bought a mini-fridge with a lock, ensuring my food was safe. Jenna noticed, \u201cYou seem happier lately.\u201d I replied, \u201cTaking control of the fridge situation made a huge difference.\u201d\n
The ordeal taught me the importance of setting boundaries and standing up for myself. It wasn\u2019t just about the food \u2013 it was about respect and boundaries.\n
