When people take my belongings without asking

I cannot stress enough how irritating when people use my stuff without asking or when they misplace it. I mean come on if youre going to borrow my things at least put it back where you found it, it's bad enough that you used my things without asking me but now I have to be the one to look for it? It's like this one time when my brother took my iPod charger, I was looking for it for 2 hours and when I asked him where he put it all he said was "I don't know." the iPod charger was in his room the whole time. I was so irritated that I never let him borrow any of my belongings ever again. I remember confronting him about why he takes my things without asking and he said that he just forgot. This went on for several days until eventually I got tired of his reasons and decided that I will never let him use any of my items ever again. I think one of the reasons why people engage in this behavior is because they are lazy or maybe because they forget. But one thing is for certain this behavior is annoying and quite irritating. Yes sometimes I forgive and forget but please do not take it for granted. Patience can only go so far. I do not think that people realize that this attitude and behavior is quite a bothersome mainly because they are stubborn or they are too ignorant. I mean let's be honest how hard is it to return an item where you found it? It literally takes 2 minutes or less. You cannot sacrifice 2 minutes if your day to return an item where you found it? To be honest one factor would be laziness. I say this mainly because it is common, people stemmed naturally lazy but just like everything it can change all it really takes is effort and time. Being lazy is just a habit and whatever the reason is we should know what is different from right to wrong. Another reason why people engage this behavior is because they forget but please if I ask you where it is and you say you forgot please assist me and help me look for it. That would be a lot better than leaving the situation the way it is.
