God this is going to make me sound a right bitch but how do you approach things like this?
My uncle lived at home until his parents passed away three years ago , he was 45.
Up to this point he had never left home, paid no rent and bills, mostly didn't cook, car bought and insured for him, left jobs numerous times because he didn't have to worry about funds and had regular paid for holidays across the World. Good for him, honestly.
When his parents died he inherited a very large house but as it needed a lot of modernisation he sold it for somewhere else that resulted in a small mortgage.
All I ever hear is about my poor uncle having to start a mortgage at 45 and my poor uncle who now has to sort paying bills and poor uncle this and that because he can't go on the holidays he used to (even though he's going to USA and Dubai this year!)
It's driving me bonkers.
I hate flying so not at all jealous but I've had some really actual damn tough times in life and am still trying to build up from having literally nothing when we left exh, loss myself, serious health issues etc, being on my own with my children and I get no sympathy what so ever but poor poor uncle is having such a terrible time.
Help?
I don't want to be a what about me person but that's how it makes me feel.
