NOPKins,

In the last few weeks I have stopped paying for almost everything. Now, she is covering her kids expenses, her gas expense and extras.

The only thing I pay for is $39 cell phone which was $79.
I also pay for food (only groceries) and utilities.

She is going to counseling tomorrow and will pay for that session ($90). I heard her on the phone talking to the counselor when scheduling the appointment. The counselor asked 'Who is paying the bill?'. Her comment was 'I am, but my mother is reimbursing me'. This was meant for me to hear and I took it as a 'Woe is me, have pity on me'. And this from a 43 year old women. She has almost $4000 in checks from student loans that she has not cashed.

Yesterday, she made the comment 'I am out of my medication.' She is taking anti-dep. She has been on these for about 3 months and I have picked up the tab. I guess she expects me to pay for these too.

She just does not get it!
