[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the annoyance is (1) having to hear the complaints about the lack of money as if it is something outside their control in combination with (2) watching them spend in a manner that is digging their hole deeper.

That is annoying.

If they never complained about money or even acknowledged their lack of self control that contributed to the situation and there was a reciprocal exchange of support this would probably not be an issue.

I don't see that. I understand the annoyance about vacations since it imposes on her (in a reciprocal relationship, but even so...). But monitoring when they replace electronics? That's a bit much for the OP. That's really intrusive.

I think there's more to the story here. She begins by saying the always had money until a few years ago. What happened? The economy? And they haven't adjusted their lifestyle? Fine. That's understandable, but have a bit more compassion. Or, did one elect to stay home and they've continued to live beyond their means? That's a little bit of a different story.

Either way, she totally lost me when she complained about how they replace their electronics. I mean, really? That's really petty.[/quote]
