NEW UPDATE: ET asked DH to help her move out of her (now ex) BF's house...
UPDATE: Now she called and ask if DH would come down to use our AAA to tow her broke-down truck back to whatever hovel she is living in so it doesn't get impounded. I told DH to tell her that he wasn't available but I was. Let's see how that goes.
He did also text OSS to tell him not to help his mom if she reaches out to him tonight. Hopefully he listens to DH.
ORIGINAL: You know, the BF she told DH she was "taking things slow with" at Thanksgiving and moved in with right after Christmas? That one.
She also told DH that part of the reason was because her BF's DD was "playing games" to keep BF to herself, and ET wasn't "trying to replace her mother, but she's been dead for five years so BF's DD just needs to get over it already."
The DD is maybe 8 years old. Apparently that's too old to still be grieving her dead mother.
Anyway, DH said no and ET sullenly slithered back under her rock. Now that she doesn't have the kids to use as bartering tools, she can't weasel help out of anyone. She has no job, no working vehicle at the moment, no way to move her stuff to...well, I'm not sure if she has somewhere to go or not.

She isn't your DH's
She isn't your DH's responsibility, and she will find someone else to help (enable) her. People like her always do. Your DH did the right thing by saying no.
Good for your DH. No was the
Good for your DH. No was the correct answer. Clearly ET will never grow up.
This sounds just like my MIL.
This sounds just like my MIL. Revolving door of men who she rushes into things with too quickly, only to have it fizzle out. Then she needs help sorting out merged finances, finding a place to go, etc. It's always a mess. My MIL dated a man last year with a daughter and also claimed the daughter was "playing games" to keep Dad to herself. I don't think that was the case, I think MIL didn't like the female "competition," which I know is an issue with her since she hates my SIL and I for "taking her boys away from her." MIL has to be the leading (only) lady in every man's life or she can't cope.
Smh... good for DH on saying "No."
Call the waaaaaaahm-bulance,
Call the waaaaaaahm-bulance, ET.
Good on your DH, Lt Dad!
I'm surprised that she still
I'm surprised that she still thinks DH would help her... Would you guys help with the AAA?
People like her always have someone to call.
How pathetic
When you have to call your ex to help you move, how pathetic.
She and Toxic Troll could be sisters
Except this was TT a few years ago...when she was "homeless", and another year when she got her tax return money and wanted Dh to measure her living room and then borrow his truck because "she was thinking of buying some new furniture on Fb marketplace".
Dh told her "no, Im not measuring anything and no you cannot borrow my truck..." and then, wait for it..."my wife wouldnt like that". So youve got a good guy there, who doesnt need to use you as an excuse. And Toxic Troll is stomping boundaries to this day.
ET needs to get her chit together.
