Newlyweds and Unwanted Houseguests
Our protagonist got married in a simple courthouse ceremony, only for her in-laws to move in the very next day! The in-laws were evicted from their apartment, and our protagonist was kept in the dark about it. They asked to stay for a couple of months to get back on their feet, but four years later, they’re still there. After her husband suffered two heart attacks, the in-laws started contributing to the bills, but their payments are always late, and late fees are piling up. Now, they’re asking to borrow money, while having the audacity to tell the couple to get their act together. Our protagonist wonders if she’s wrong for asking them to pay their share and for refusing to lend money until their own bills are paid. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
