MIL asked my husband and I to lend her $800
Backstory, her and her husband are just terrible with money. And we honestly dont mind helping them out if they need it, but the thing that doesnt sit well with me is how she is towards us. She often gives me back handed compliments, and will 100% favor her other grandkids, and favor my BIL and his wife.
She called my husband over the weekend and asked to borrow $800 because she didnt have the money to pay for her credit card bill. To top it off, her husband and her dont have shared accounts. They have separate accounts, and typically her husband will venmo her money for bills but I guess this time he didnt have it? It seems shady to me that he couldnt Venmo her the money for her cc bill, obviously he didnt have it, so where is that money going. Its also concerning that she doesnt have enough to cover that in her own account.. Something just doesnt seem right. And on top of the way she sometimes treats us, it just annoyed me. Like why are you not calling the son you favor more for money? The nerve for her to treat us differently than her other kids / grandkids, but to immediately run to us when she needs money is something. Am I overreacting?
