• For example, say they need to get their car fixed, and it costs thousands. They don't have the money, so they borrow it from you, and give it right to the mechanic. In their mind, they barely even touched that money, because they gave it away. Now, they're resentful that they have to pay you back, and they also can barely afford to do so, since they didn't have the funds for it in the first place. 

  It'll make things much more pleasant if you just pay them, and then never think about that money again. 

  But this woman is stuck in a super awkward, and increasingly volatile, situation with her MIL. Her hubby's away at bootcamp. And the MIL is about to leave for a trip… even though she still owes quite a lot of money to her DIL. The audacity!

• Am I overreacting? Text convo with MIL.

• People couldn't believe the MIL's audacity

  But they also warned this person that she's never going to see that money again. If only her husband was here to put his Mom in check for talking so impolitely to his wife! I wonder if they let him have his phone at bootcamp, or if he'll find out about this whole mess once he gets back. 

• This was the part that really got me

  I'm sorry but like, girl, say you can't pay back that money for literally any other reason! It makes you look insane! 

  Thinking realistically, she probably planned the vacation months ago, maybe before she even borrowed any money, but still, like… yikes! I cannot imagine why she thought that would smooth things over rather than adding gasoline to the fire.
