I Have a Question

I wonder. Why do you hate or despise someone who was once dear to your heart?

For instance/here is an example why I don't like my mom/I love her but don't like her

I sent her this sms: "Hi mom, how are you?"

her reply exactly: "I need airtime"

sigh

@SW-User What does that even mean, I need airtime?
Is she on TV....🤔
Airtime is related to TV personas, right?

How does this idiom work here?

English is not my first language :)

SW-User

She wanted me to send her money, so she can make phonecalls and send sms messages

@SW-User at least she could have worded it better. Like this, I'm fine dear, how are you. I'm sorry I'm low in airtime....(like that)

SW-User

Yes exactly :)

@SW-User I don't think a parent should be asking their child for money. 🤷🏻
I hope I never have to...Wow. 🤔
