Well, I heard from my W again tonight.

She texted to ask another favor. A financial one this time—she said money is tight and she needs to pay rent to her parents and make a payment to her paralegal. I said I would have to think about it.

Internally, I was pretty irked by this request. Money is really tight for me, too, especially since I'm the one solely making the huge car payment that is in both our names every month. I mean, I guess it probably took something to ask, but I'm not sure if its humility or chutzpah.

I know MWD says someone in my case should look on a WAW asking for a favor as a baby step forward, but I almost feel like she is trying to take advantage of my desire to reconcile and what I like to think is my generous nature. In both of these texts, she hasn't talked about anything but her request.

Thoughts?
