Though seeing your family might be pleasant for most people, this woman on Reddit can’t stand her sister-in-law’s visits because she takes advantage of her income. The post , which has over 3.8 K comments, has opened a debate about the limits of paying someone else’s bills.
The OP explained that her SIL visits her often and always stays at her and her husband’s house, but she enjoys attending fancy, expensive restaurants that she can’t afford. Still, she expects her specifically to pay for her food because she has a better salary than her husband.

She justifies that even though she makes good money, she can’t treat everyone that comes to visit and that the biggest issue is that her SIL never pays back, no matter how many times she has asked her to.
The sister-in-law, whom she called Amy, always uses the same excuse: she forgot her wallet at home and always manages to get her bill paid by her. However, the last time she visited, the OP found some inspiration from a Two And A Half Men episode that would make her win.
Amy had made a reservation at a very expensive restaurant, but right before they left, the OP went back to the house and grabbed the wallet that Amy supposedly forgot, even though it was sitting right on top of her suitcase.
She later explains that when they were done eating, she asked for separate bills, but Amy said she had forgotten her wallet. Nevertheless, the OP showed her the wallet and expected her to pay this time; instead, Amy took it the wrong way and got mad at her for touching her stuff.
Why Should She Pay For Her Sister-In-Law?
Amy Was Furious
The post ends with an update from the OP telling the users that Amy had seen the post and that she was highly furious about it. She said she was ‘badmouthing’ her on the Internet, but she added that she doesn’t care and that maybe this would show her that what she does is wrong.
In the comments, most users agreed that she made a genius move. Some even proclaimed that they had done similar things because they were tired of friends and family who never made any effort to pay back. They also pointed out that Amy never intended to pay back and that she always left her wallet on purpose.
On the other hand, many comments brought up that her husband doesn’t say anything about the situation, even though his sister takes advantage of the poster. In the end, everyone was asking why they would still invite her and telling her they should cancel her expensive reservations.
