    My brother, "David", got engaged to his fiancée, "Chloe", a few months ago and they're planning their wedding. We have an older
  • 04
    brother, "Henry", married to "Rose", with me being the youngest.
  • 05
    David has been with his fiancée for less than 2 years at this point, and he really wanted to get married because love hasn't been
  • 06
    too kind to him and now, being closer to his 40s than to 30, he really wanted to start a family.

    Our mother sadly passed away when we were kids, and I got about 90% of her jewelry and other "girly" stuff like clothes,
  • 09
    with the exception of a few things going to my brothers and other family, that's what was on her will.

    My husband and I were having dinner at a restaurant a few weeks ago with my brothers and their partners. We were chatting and such, and then Chloe starts
  • 11
    talking about the wedding, and she mentions that David has talked to her about my mom's jewelry collection, and how much it would mean to her if I let her
  • 12
    use some pieces for her wedding. I kindly said sure, that we can schedule a time for her to come to my house so we can go. through everything and then to
  • 13
    my bank safe box to check other more valuable pieces. She was happy with my answer and we continued with our dinner.
  • 14
    I honestly don't know Chloe very well and I'm not the most social and charismatic person, so I
  • 15
    thought I would definitely let her choose some jewelry so we can do something together.
  • 16
    So she came a few days ago, we went through everything, including some pieces that I bought myself or were gifts from my husband or other people, and
  • 17
    she completely fell in love with about a dozen pieces, including a few rings. She said she was sad she couldn't wear everything at
  • 18
    her wedding, because she doesn't need 4 necklaces and 5 bracelets, and she didn't want to wear rings.
  • 19
    David called me a few hours ago, telling me Chloe talked to him. about the jewelry, and asking if I could give all the pieces she said she loved as a wedding gift, that
  • 20
    since I actually gave our mom's engagement ring to Henry to propose to Rose and a gold chain(edit: cuban link) to melt and

  • 22
    turn into wedding bands, it would only be fair that I give her some jewelry too.
  • 23
    I was taken aback by this, since first, I did give David one of mom's rings to turn into Chloe's engagement ring, and the gold
  • 24
    chain's gold was also used for my and my husband's bands and will be used for David and Chloe's bands too.
  • 25
    I think he noticed my silent shock and started to tell me how Chloe actually always feels left out by Rose and me when we have family gatherings and such. That
  • 26
    Rose and I have coffee dates every week and go to concerts and whatnot together and never invite Chloe, that Rose's sister also comes with us sometimes, so
  • 27
    giving her the jewelry (including some of my own) was the least I could do to make up for it.
  • 28
    To be frank, it is true that my relationship with Chloe is completely different than my relationship with Rose. But that's because I've known Rose since I was 14 and I'm now 31, and
  • 29
    again, I'm not a people person. In fact, I actually had no interest in Rose when she and Henry started dating, I used to avoid her whenever she came over for dinner because she was always
  • 30
    asking me questions and I found it annoying. She was very patient with me in that regard, but we eventually started developing a friendship and she's now like the sister I never had.
  • 31
    I genuinely don't think I can get that close to Chloe, because we're way too different personality- wise, and interests as well. I thought letting her borrow some jewelry was something nice for me to do, but I don't want to gift them to her. Am I being an A here?
