My significant other has their sibling in a different country asking for simple help. basically the sibling has a debit bank account in our country but cannot access it in their country due to location. They’re basically an independent person. A long time ago their family migrated to our country except for the sibling who stayed back because they had a relationship going. Eventually they had kids in the other country so between my significant other and the sibling there was just the past, and also being family. Recently the sibling visited and stayed near us in a city close by. They set up that bank account and got a good paying job thru their other sibling. They put some money away for their needs. However when they finally wanted to comeback they couldn’t get a plane ticket again due to the different Geo location. So be careful who you bank with. In this case Wells Fargo Bank is at the center of the drama. Friends don’t let friend bank at Wells Fargo, the asshole Bank.

Anyway, the onion peals one layer of drama and on to the next. The older sibling living nearby is the usual contact helping the remote sibling. My significant other and I are usually not at the cross hairs of the continuous mooching, begging and usual real necessities. This relationship is usually called remittance based…some rando family member of your significant other gets to have some of your hard earned money. That’s my feeling because in my side of the family we don’t have any mooching or anyone desperately asking for help and demanding bday money and Christmas allowance, hospital stays, births, deaths, shoes, roofs, clothing etc.

That’s just the circumstances revolving my relationship troubles today. The jist of the issues is mostly because my significant other keeps asking for my opinion on matters that I have no say into. Like I don’t need to stick my spoon in that fire at all. But she keeps trying.
