Money

I've been snapping at him for no reason. Feeling more frustrated than usual with the fact that I can't see him without having to spend money.

I know he is in debt and it sucks and I don't want him to feel more stressed than he already is. But it shouldn't be my responsibility. We're both living at home, we're both basically not working. I tutor once a week and spend every penny on eating out with him and tickets. It's frustrating.

He should be asking his parents for money. But obviously he doesn't want to because then they will be even more annoyed with him for not working. And it's true that they don't budget for having to give him money for things like going out. He's worked since he was 16, they haven't had to give him money in 10 years. But he's their kid and went through a lot of stuff and doesn't feel like he can work.

I can't even go over there because it's still awkward for him. So if I want to see him, then I just have to pay.
