My little sister is suddenly not comfortable helping me. Her husband thinks I am taking advantage of her, which is NOT the case. He does not even know me! I wish people would stay out of family stuff and let us deal with stuff between ourselves.
I’m sorry Dale.
This really does not surprise me. If she does not want to help me anymore she should tell me and tell me why. I have never done anything that would lead her to believe I am untrustworthy. This is typical of my family. However, her husband has no business weighing in on this when he does not even know me.

Here's the thing: when people don't know you, they can look at he situation more objectively. You don't know your sister's situations, maybe her husband is worried she is stretching her budget or herself too thin. Maybe he's looking out for her and it seems like overstepping to you because you are too close to the problem.
They both are well off and have their own monies. Her husband does not know me and can not expect to make a valid determination of what I am and am not doing. Why so suddenly has this happened when my sister has helped several times including buying me a 43" HDTV and helping me when I was overdrawn? He should let my sister and I work things out
It has been 8 days since I sent my sister my last 2 emails. Whatever she may be expecting from me is not going to happen. I am not going to beg for help and I never would do that. I have survived many years without family in my life.
