Friend is a single mom with no job and won’t stop spending.
I have a friend (25) who’s a single parent. She had her child at 17 and as you can imagine, has struggled her way through a lot of her life (beyond her child as well). She’s currently paying her bills thanks to her grandpa.
She is messaging me just about every day to tell me of the things she’s bought, or wants to buy. Anything from makeup to getting a hotel to meet up with and hook up with a guy (add on the cost of childcare to that type of bill).
I don’t need to go into all the details, her priorities are completely out of whack. Whenever I try to tell her this she always tells me to just be a friend, or that her priorities are in order since her bills are paid and her child in fed.
I can’t tell her that paying your bills on someone else’s money isn’t exactly doing well for yourself. A breaking point for me was she was over for an evening with her son and she asked if he could have a frozen food from my freezer because she didn’t have the money to order food as she had offered.
Which I had offered my fridge to begin with so that itself isn’t the issue, the issue is literally the next morning she texted me to show me a $70 Sephora order she placed..
Am I just to sit back and let her make her own choices? It kills me watching her be so stupid.
