She does not have any children of her own mind you, so I feel like she has no room to take that stance. Melissa has stated multiple times that being a mom isn’t that difficult and plenty of other moms make time to do things on their own, which I find completely tone deaf because everyone’s situation is different, but whatever. I have a stable job, but I don’t exactly have a bunch of extra fun money laying around.
I haven’t taken a vacation more than 2 hours away in years because it’s simply not in my budget. I fully support myself, but Melissa is currently a stay at home fiancé and has been for the past 2 years. Her husband makes a very good amount of money to the point where she’s constantly bragging about it how big his paychecks are, how expensive the wedding is going to be, and how much they’re dropping on their honeymoon. Honestly, it’s been hard even having conversations with her over the past few months because every time we’re on the phone she has to give me a breakdown of exactly how much has been going in their account, even saying things like “he made 8k on his last paycheck I don’t think you can even comprehend how much money that is”, which leaves me feeling a little weird because what is she trying to say? I love her to death, but her personal paycheck is $0, so like why is this all she talks about?
Also why is she assuming that everyone else just has a few bands lying around for fun? I sure don’t and never really have and she knows this, just like she knew our other friend didn’t have the money either. The other women going on the trip are just the girlfriends of her fiancé’s friends. One of which is a doctor and the other is a lawyer who seem to be handing over money freely, which is great, but just not realistic for our other friend and I that she’s had for over 10 years.
