    Art - So I have a niece, 21F, let's call her Sarah. Sarah has been raised well, has a good amount of money, and recently got married.

    Font - The other day, we were in a family gathering, and one of my sisters (not Sarah's mother) had bought me a box of expensive chocolates. It looked kind of weird/ old but I didn't really do anything about it since that's what I thought it looked like. Anyways, I saw Sarah eyeing it and looking uncomfortable/needy. I asked her what was wrong and she said "C- can I have those chocolates?" I agreed since I didn't really need it and I was feeling generous.

    Font - Today, I got a call from Sarah's mother (one of my sisters) and she was fuming! She said that Sarah and her husband had gotten food poisioning and it was all my fault! I told her I wasn't the one that bought it and I had gotten it as a gift from my other sister. Sarah's mother just completely closed the call in my face. Whatever.

    Font - I was sort of ignorant until I got a message from Sarah requesting 50$ (the price of those chocolates) I called her and explained I wasn't the one that bought them and that it was a gift and she was the one who decided to take it. Sarah kept getting angrier and angrier and kept requesting the money.

    Handwriting - I feel kind of bad since I saw that the chocolates looked spoiled but I didn't do anything. So, AITA?

    Font - UPDATE: Sarah wants money since I apparently was the ne who gave it to her. I told her that was BS and she still didn't care, and kept demanding the money even more

    Font - ShaneVis Asshole Aficionado [11] ΝΤΑ Chocolate doesn't really spoil because of the fat in the Cocoa it just turns white and even then it's still fine to eat your niece must have gotten the food poisoning from eating something else.

Your niece may have eaten too much chocolate or gotten an upset stomach from eating it along with rich foods on the same day, or from something unrelated.

    Font - Mean_Environment4856 Colo-rectal Surgeon [41] So I have a nephew, 21F, Sarah would be your niece, not nephew. Why is Sarah requesting money from you for something that she took for free? This whole thing is just weird. Reply Share SAHOVA 22 layoool OP Thanks for telling me that, I'm not that fluent in english so sorry abt that

    Font - Important-Lawyer-350 Aficionado [12] A NTA. You don't ask for money to replace a gift that made you sick because she didn't pay for it in the first place. Your niece is an AH. She obviously knew they were expensive and thats why she asked for them. She continued to eat the weird tasting chocolate and then got sick and bow wants a refund for something she didn't even pay for. Thats karma - her spoilt little self got sick because she was greedy.
