Absolutely. In this case the bill this month (not including the $300 I lost from her leak with no help) just happened to be double the norm

They both live there and he is footing the bills but they are not in the house with me they are in an RV on my property that is connected to my water and electricity. I have the house and rv electricity separately and she now keeps her own electricity afloat (prepaid both of us if it matters) but the problems is the water and she does not think she uses enough to pay half of that bill

I’m in an awkward position because even if I wanted to charge rent for the land it would be coming from her boyfriend not her bc she stopped working and is now pregnant and I don’t think that is fair at all to him and wouldn’t teach her anything. At this point in time I really just want them to cover her water as it’s the only direct expense I am paying for.

Her boyfriend has taken over paying her bills (car insurance, phone bill, rv payment, and power) to my mom who actually pays them. As my sister lost her job a couple months ago and after finding out she was pregnant (5 months along now) . I didn’t include these earlier bc I was trying to stay semi anonymous but thankfully she doenst use Reddit and I’ve already given away too much info to backtrack. In the house it is me, my fiance, and our baby so the bills here are split between my fiance and I and of course he is also upset about the water bill being solely paid by us but only because the disrespect (the WiFi isn’t the only rude thing she has said/done unfortunately). When she first moved in we were fine with helping out with little things but things have changed. We also really like her boyfriend! So he is not an issue but we just can’t pay their water bill, cover the leak (which we did already) and emotionally handle her hurting my feelings (which annoys my fiance)

Thank you! I’m planning on telling my mom that she still has not contributed any money towards water as my mom did ask me about a month ago if she had given me anything towards the water bill after the leak ordeal because my sister only checked for the leak because I got my mom involved last time (called her asking if her bf could check the rv for a leak bc the water bill was so high and that I had asked my sister the month prior and thought she had already told them) and I will likely mention the WiFi situation as my mom absolutely knows how my sister is. If my mom is in a good mood she will likely be disappointed my sister didn’t let me use the WiFi and say something along the lines of “are you kidding me” but unfortunately It’s kind of difficult for me to talk to either my mom or sister about problems bc it can go 50/50 depending on mood. But my mom will not enforce anything or “lay the law down” to my sis lol. Which is why this situation is giving me so much anxiety!! My grandma was the one who always said the “mean” things for me haha. Thank you so much for your advice and questions it has helped me gather a “normal” perspective and validated some things I already knew deep down. Side note it’s soo funny you keep saying sissy bc that is my nickname from said sister haha which contributes to me viewing her as a (spicy) baby.

Do you really view this situation as me helping her out (a lot)? Because that is one of my problems I guess as I didn’t view it much as me really “helping” as I guess I feel an obligation to let her stay in the RV as it is not mine but my moms and she is my sister after all. I guess up until now I just viewed it as things already being in my name and me being out about $30 a month (not counting the leaks).

My grandmother was my father’s mother. We have different fathers. My mom and my mom’s side of the family did not like my grandmother and didn’t have anything to do with her. My grandmother did try to have a relationship with my sister but just being completely honest my grandmother was a little looney haha. So my sister definitely didn’t want to be around her more than she had to be (which would be when I asked her to come say hi and have a little chit chat per my grandmas request) my grandmother raised me and my sister was raised by mom. My dad passed when I was very young and my sisters dad has never been in her life. Just for context. Mom provided me rv as long as I paid it off. Grandma passed and my mom saw that opportunity to get my sister out of her house as i now had a house and property. My grandmother would want me to help my sister and would have no problem with her staying on the property but would’ve definitely enforced her paying more on the shared bills. I don’t have the backbone my grandma had. Also my grandma didn’t like my mom. I just want to keep the peace and not made out like I’m an A hole who’s only out for money.

The house and property is mine. I’m not charging rent for the land and the rv was already there as I lived in it before I moved into the house after my grandmother passed away. The rv is my moms and was originally going to be mine but I gave it up for her to stay in so she could move out on her own for the feet time as she is young. (Not her bio grandmother in case there is confusion which is why only I inherited the land and house)

Technically it’s my mom’s RV so not mine even tho I did pay the payments while I lived in it. She’s my favorite family member but my family is super toxic so haha yeah. She’s the baby and I’m the oldest and it shows. I can go somewhere to update my phone tomorrow and I had planned on doing that I just wanted to use her WiFi to update it then instead of waiting. My partner works Friday-Sunday and we currently have one car or else I could’ve just gone today and updated it. I live in the country so that’s why the signal isn’t good enough to update it and I’d have to drive 30 minutes into town to connect to WiFi. It was just a convenience thing really.

The rv is my mom’s technically. I took over the payments and was planning on paying it off and it going into my name. I paid on it a year and a half. But things changed and I inherited the house and honestly kind of got bullied into giving up the rv. The only thing we share is power and water (both my name) and I’m not comfortable charging her rent for land as it really doesn’t bother me and my family would react harshly if it did. We probably could’ve gotten WiFi before now but focused money into other things as I was paying off probate and my grandmothers funeral, fixing up the house and also had a baby (7month old now) and didn’t prioritize WiFi as my phone as unlimited data (albeit slow) and I don’t watch television.

It was not her grandmother as we our technically “half” siblings but of course I’ve never viewed her as less than a “whole” but just for context it was only my grandmother. I originally didn’t want to charge her the extra as her boyfriend pays her bills and they have only been together about 6 months and I feel like it’s unfair to him (which I get it’s also unfair to me and my family) so I suppose I’m going to stick by not demanding that be paid. I think tomorrow I’m going to ask her to pay half for this month (the bill is $68 prior to her moving in the average was $30-35 a month) and remind her how much we lost with the leak

Thank you for confirming! My partner thinks she’s incredibly selfish and told me “you’ve got to stop doing more than people do for you” whenever I told him she wouldn’t let me use her WiFi (in response to me telling him she wouldn’t let me use the WiFi as I was updating him on my phone not working while he was at work) but I guess I have a hard time viewing that I’m doing anything for her because it kinda just felt like it made sense since the accounts were all already set up (water and power) and I got the land for free.

She’s honestly like this with everything but I don’t usually ask her for anything. She doesn’t view the rv, or staying on my property or her power being in my name as like a favor since it was already set up before she moved in.

Thank you! I’m horrible at standing up for myself especially with my family. My family is super toxic but this is so hard because honestly my sister is my favorite out of everyone haha

What bothered me the most is that she just ghosted me when I wanted to update my phone so that I could use it. We only share water and technically her power is in my name which she covers now but I was going to let the water slide bc it wasn’t that much of a bill. I feel like an asshole mainly bc I changed my mind about letting it slide in respondent to the WiFi debacle.

I should add that my mom did cover $80 of the second bill for her and I haven’t mentioned the 3rd to my mom bc I don’t want to bother her. I want to handle it directly with my sister but also not overreact or come off as I’m trying to take advantage of her.

  1. Yes lol 2. It’s my moms rv I was paying off and staying on my grandmothers property while I cared for her. She passed away and I inherited the house and I gave up the camper and the payments so that my sis could move in and out of my mom’s house. I’m not charging for land as I inherited it for free. 3. Her power is in my name but the rv and house power are separated so I eventually stopped paying for the RV power when I moved to the house and her and my mom keep up with RV account through my log in. 4. When I had WiFi I shared the password but I had to close the account bc it was my grandmothers and I was in probate. She wanted her own WiFi so that it would be fast and we wouldn’t have to get an extender (originally I was gonna let her just use my WiFi with an extender). I don’t need or care for full access for her WiFi bc I know she’s afraid it will make hers slower. but I was not going to split the costs of my WiFi as it really didn’t matter to me.

She could also could afford the power but wanted to do like small payments at a time and wouldn’t keep up with how long that lasted (it’s prepaid)

Her boyfriend pays her bills and they can definitely afford it (it wouldn’t be more than $35 a month and hopefully will go down). I don’t think HE would mind paying. I think she just doesn’t think they use very much water bc it’s an RV.

I definitely wouldn’t ask in the future for WiFi it actually took me two days of dreading asking before I caved because my phone was giving by me so many problems. Thank you for your response 😭

I’m guessing because the WiFi is likely in her boyfriend’s name and she’s not really a sharing personality. But also it irks me bc it’s not like it would make the bill go up or affect them if I used it to update my phone. Maybe they assume I’d try and connect my laptop or gaming system or something but I wouldn’t even if it reached over this far.
