“Said no to lending boyfriend £50”

I hurt my boyfriend's feelings by not lending him money when he needed it

What I wish I knew
"That saying yes to a one-off loan would have been a way to show support during a difficult time"
If I could tell you one thing
"Be more understanding and empathetic when your partner is struggling, and consider lending a helping hand when possible"
