[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She doesn't say how much more she wants. Just talks about how she doesn't have enough. Asks whether we think it's ok for her to ask her friends for more, etc... Heavy, heavy hinting. She's my sister in law. My spouse says we should just ignore the hinting, but she's directing all of it at me. I don't know what to say! I've tried just listening and validating. "oh, that must be so hard" etc... but she keeps on going. It's also hard, because I'm kind of mortified that she's asking her friends for money for this.[/quote] She's directing her pleas to you because you are a softie and keep validating her feelings. If I was your DH, I'd be irritated at you for enabling her. [/quote]
