I know IABU and it’s none of my business.
But, I’m getting annoyed with friend who is constantly going on about having no money, but then turns up with new (non essential) stuff she has bought herself..... coats, hat, scarf, bag, outfits, Botox etc etc.
Friend has husband who is a high earner, but she is not. They have had a lot of work that needed doing on their house over the past year, which has used up all their savings and more.
I have met up and patiently listened while she has been extremely stressed by her money situation and has told me they’ve had to make sacrifices. I have been very sympathetic - genuinely- as I can imagine how stressful it must be.
But then friend turns up in new expensive coat (she already has about 4!) and other stuff mentioned above and my sympathy wears a bit thin! And I wonder why I’m having to listen to this every week! I’m probably jealous as I’ve had the same coat for years!
