Hmm…since SIL is also sending viber messages to your friend…what if your friend has a nice/friendly chat with the SIL…asks about her kids, her life, idhar udhar ki baatein…just have a genuinely good/fun/relaxed conversation with SIL…and then… maybe your friend could say “y’know I was really excited about sending him this phone…does he even like it? (Feign concern)”…and then SIL will prolly say yeah he loves his phone. Then your friend can say …“Oh phew that’s a relief…i thought maybe he wasnt happy with it because since he has received it he has not called/texted me from this phone.”

^Maybe that’ll get her thinking about things. She honestly may not even be fully aware of how she’s monopolized the phone. Your friend has a good relationship with her SIL…and SIL is also vibering her…so that means she’s cool with your friend…so I doubt there are ill intentions. Your friend can try to give a “hint” to SIL if she thinks it’ll help and won’t hurt relationships. If she thinks it’s too much of a risk…then she should avoid it.

So if the above is too risky…then she should be patient and let things sort themselves out between SIL and her bhai.

I like this idea…sneaky but polite. I like it a lot actually. If she doesn’t want to try this then I suggest your friend prioritize…what is more important? Communicating with her fiancé using expensive gadgets or saving up for her future? Tell her to stop spending $ on phone calls…let him bear the brunt of it…she isn’t a cash cow where her money is supposed to be paying for her SIL’s expenses…she has her own husband…use his money. Besides…I don’t understand this role reversallllll…what on earth is he good for if he cannot even make a phone call to his fiancé???
