I was bombarded by the fact that for this month's bill, for sure I will be the one to shoulder it again. No one in the Family circle gave me any amount to at least lessen my responsibility. But I wanted to cry.
My sister in law gave me 700 pesos as their share for the electricity bill and still, it's not enough. We should pay half of the bill. But since they have issues with their financial, as ever the bad one which is me will have to shoulder the amount. And I still want to cry.
I have all the bills right in front of me.
Anyway, I hope you will have a good one.

A total of 1,800.
We are two households, my 2nd Brother lives on the other side of our house and they connect with us. Before we agreed to pay half of the bill every month, but when 2nd Brother loses his food business and has trouble with financial. They can only give us 500 or 700 and that's not right.
So I will be the one paying most of the bill.
I understand them and I cannot do anything about it. But sometimes I end up the bad guy.

I'm so sorry you have that burden. But those who carry all the burdens. Life is never easy but be strong and hold on to what's left.

It really gives me the cringe about having a relationship or marriage when ever bills comes to pass. Although our bills is a lot higher, I don't think I can afford it with out the help of our commercial business.
Don't give up, keep on praying and look for other online business.

No, they are very abusive when it comes to using electricity and water.

you are too considerate and selfless that you are always 'abused' by your siblings, and it is a fact that you are sick. i hope you will be able to do well with your financial problem now.

Not all. I can only get medicines on Lingap and PCSO.
My SSS pension is good for the bills here at home.

My Mother is also sick, and I as the eldest is also sick. My 3 Brothers doesn't have any decent job or regular job. And I am thankful because I use to get my SSS pension every month. Which helps me in paying our bills every month.

My share is very high compared to them and it sucks because that share will be a big help for me.

Everyone has to pay for the bill. Why don't you give your share to them and let them pay the bills in the bank/payment center, etc. At least you've done your share. It's up to them when they will pay the bills. You know the consequences when you pay the bills past the due date.

Oh how I can relate. It seems no matter how hard you try, it is just always never enough to go around, and so many never want to understand

I feel sorry for you Bhem. I wish they get to realize that it is you who needed the money the most so they shouldn't atleast let it shouldered by you and also by the way, may I as well ask where are you going to get the money which you are going to use to pay all those pending bills?

I have my Monthly Pension from SSS. That's what I use in case of emergency.
The funds that I'm raising in my Operation, I did not touch it because it's for my operation.
Plus I have the boyfriend who in case I can lend a money too.
