After their wedding day, many women strive to keep their beautiful gowns in perfect condition for years to come. Whether they want their children to wear their dresses someday or simply want to keep the lace and satin details pristine to admire in 30 years, it's up to them what they do with their dresses. Even though a common ideal in families is the typical "sharing is caring" notion, this should not apply to things you've spent an exceptional amount of time and money on. It's not up to you to appease people, even if that means telling sister dearest to pack up her ideas about "repurposing" your wedding dress because you're "done with it". Nobody should feel entitled to your belongings.

The original poster (OP) of this story has told her sister to get lost after the sister asks her if she can "borrow" and "repurpose" her wedding dress (which the OP has only had for one year). The OP's sister refuses to take no for an answer, sprinkling in the ideas of family that probably only apply to her when she needs something. Scroll below to read the full story.
