Being frugal is fine... but my sibling uses my internet, uses my MS Office, prints reams of god-knows-what on my printer, eats my food, drinks my alcohol, uses my garage to work on his vehicle, uses my work out room. Then has the gall to go behind my back and ridicule me for spending money on things like high speed internet and cable tv.
In-laws have bitched to the same effect, but I don't ***** because I want to keep the peace.
DAE have a mooch they want to distance themselves from?
No, because my siblings aren't mooches, and if they were I wouldn't put up with it. People can only take advantage of you as far as you allow them to. *shrugs*
So disconnect the internet... what else he complain disconnect that too... and close the door too. Seriously I don't think I will allow it,, there was a time I had that "I was unable to say NO to any one" nah not any more.

Isn't that what you just did?
To answer your question, no, I'm an adult who has maintained a separate residence from my step- and half-siblings since I was 17 years old. A lock on the door prevents entry by any would-be mooch(es).
