[quote=Anonymous]I’ll try to be as concise as possible. My husband tends to be the guy who says, “Put it on my CC. You guys can pay me back later.” Only people know he won’t bother them for repayment, and will only nudge them for the money they owe. This results in it taking forever for people to get around to repaying him. Nobody ever has enough to Venmo or PayPal, etc. And he keeps going back!

There was the time when he was at a weeklong conference. He covered $500 for the group, who said they’d pay him back. He never recouped all his money before they all split town.

Then there was the time he used his Vista Print account to pay for a $200 banner for a group he belongs to. It took months for him to get the $10 from each person.

Now, $2000 in swag for a charity event. Everyone said they’d pay him back. He’s gotten $1000, but has zero fire lit under his ass to recoup the rest.

It’s like he’s the ultimate people pleaser. The group knows nobody wants to pay up, so nobody wants to place the order on their CC. So good ole Bob, he will do it! And no need to rush paying him back, he said, “whenever you get it to me is good”. I’d say he usually recoups 90% of the money, and says “it’s fine”. Take one for the team.

I’m ready to leave over this. Somebody talk me down. Give me advice on how to handle this! My husband is the ultimate pushover in this department and I can’t anymore.[/quote]
