Or is he being taken advantage of?

[ICanBThe1]

Would you think this situation as unreasonable? My boyfriends brother said he needed help financially and if he could borrow £200 off him and didn’t say what it was for. My bf’s brother isn’t in a job where he would need emergency money. my bf gave it to him anyway without asking what it was for. Now my bfs brother has announced on Facebook that he’s going on a holiday. Presumably using the money my bf gave him. AIBU because he said he needed help financially but really it was just money for a holiday or is this expected between siblings? I feel like my bf is being taken the absolute piss out of him but he’s not allowing any conversation about it and says it’s not any of my business but I feel like his brother takes advantage of him and therefore it impacts both of us

Your situation is that you do not like your bfs brother and you object to your bf lending him money. The reality is ifs your bfs money to do as he wishes with. You have been told this countless times. Why your bf is still with you is beyond me.

Are you not a bit worried that your Bf is being taken advantage of op? I think he might be taken advantage of. You wouldn't want him to be taken advantage of.

I used to give my sister money all the time, it was absolutely no one else’s business. And this is absolutely none of yours. If you had shared money, supporting a shared house and children, you would be entitled to an opinion, but only an opinion about what he did with HIS money. In your situation? Nope, absolutely none of your business.

Hes being unreasonable for posting announcing his holiday..

What idiot announces they've just booked a holiday

I do lend money to my brother and never asked him what for and just so you know I don't work am a stay at home mum it's my husband money and he never said why he know he will give it back when he has it and it happens quite a lot about every month when he goes see his kids and will be upset if my husband says no siblings are for that help each author even if it's a holiday the most important is that my brother is happy and having good time it's just money comes and go

If your boyfriend was that concerned about lending the money he'd have asked lots of questions about what it was for. AS he didn't he's clearly fine with it being used for whatever his dbro wants to use it for. I'd stay well out of it.

Now tell me something OP- do you think he may just be being taken advantage of? Just a vibe I'm getting...
