I'm very sorry about this. I should have explained better. Eheh note to future self don't make videos when you are in an emotional state. But the short of it is. When Cody and I moved in with his parents it was to help us get out of debt we had gotten into by just surviving. At that time Cody had lost his job and I had as well. So we were doing all we can while we both looked for work but went into debt and Lost all of our Savings. So his family offered to help us by letting us live with them for a while for free. But after 6 months of us saving / working to get out of said debt. They were surprised we had not already moved out. When we do not make enough money for that. We had just gotten out of debt. And since living here. We pay rent + utilities that they waste as well as food and our own bills on top of that. We have had to go in to debt again because of how bad our in-laws are with money. To the point where there have been many times where we do not even have food in the house because of how terrible they are with their spending. They make very VERY good money. But have Zero savings and even more debt then us. Every time we ever try to save up for anything. We get ripped apart for it to the point where even when we save for something SMALL. like going out to eat once in a while to MAYBE buying a videogame. We are shamed for it. Then forced to shell out more money. Because we do not understand what suffering is. On top of the fact that they do not help us in anyway. They did for a while. Which we are grateful for and we still have a roof over our heads. But we are forced to work as hard as we do for little to no results with them still hounding us on wondering why we don't just " move out" when we pay more than half of the utilities and food in this house. Cody has Student loan debt as well as other debt he needed just to get a job. ( Tools, safety supplies ). While mine was used on just trying to survive. There have been many times where I have gone without eating just to pay a bill. We have also had our stuff stolen on many times. With no compensation. because " That is just how the world is" We are both Contently belittled for "working to much" but then in the same breath told we are not working enough. When Cody sometimes works anywhere from 18 day work weeks to 80+ hours a week on Average. While Myself is in the same boat. Our personal space / time is also never valued. I would explain that I have a livestream Pre-paid for by a client OR that I need to get certain things done in a proper manor to keep my work flow positive. And am strong armed in to doing things when they want on my own dime because " I live here and I work from home. So I can make my own hours. " I will inform them in advance when I need to not be bothered but they intend on doing it anyway. They also somehow believe that we make more money then we both do. When we have shown them countless times how much we make a month with bank statements / paypal stubs and they Just say. " well you're not suffering enough" At the end of a GOOD month I make MAYBE 100 dollars I can set aside for savings / my wedding. While in a bad month I sometimes only make enough for my bills and taking care of our pets. As for when I said we would have to do things their way for a cheaper price. It would be down to. " how we dress, what we eat, when we have it, who is invited and who is not. Oh but you will also still be paying for it." Which there is no point in my mind because if we are being forced to pay for it. Which we are fine with we just... do not see how it is possible now. We would rather have our wedding be OURS not someone else's. Something special we can look back on and be happy we made it and did it. Over being forced to make our special day about other people who do not care about us.
