I don't need it back now, but the longer it goes on the more likely they are to feign ignorance and pull the 'we bought you up' card.
I lent £2,000 to my Mum when she lost her job a couple of years back, and she's never even entered into a discussion of how I'll get that money back.
Then I lent £1,000 to my Dad to pay the rent when he lost his job, and the same goes there, with him even pretending that he thought he'd already paid me back.
Then I said to my Mum just now, 'can I lower my keep by £50 a month or so to make a dent in it' and she says 'our outgoings are going up, move out if its a problem.' What the fuck is that?
And our bills and amenities aren't going up, her and my Dad are going to mainland Europe on holiday twice a fucking year for two weeks at a time, and buying iPads they have no fucking use for.
Pain in the arse.
