Roommate’s spending habits make it hard to move out
DEAR ABBY: Nine months ago, my friend “Anne” moved in with me after losing her home following her boyfriend’s death. Since then, she’s had trouble finding employment, but when she does work, she spends money on stuff she really doesn’t need. She’s always talking about how she hates to be a burden on me and will move out ASAP. Then she buys random stuff from online shopping sites (like designer purses and clothes), so I doubt she’s saving for her own place yet. She says it’s because she’s been through a lot and she deserves it. She has a “you only live once” mindset.
