Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Do you have something that's near and dear to you? Something that you wouldn't want to give up, something you wouldn't lend even your closest friend? We all have something sentimental that doesn't have a price tag. Something that we would guard with our whole being, something that gives our life a timeline, a meaning, a purpose. Something that we can look at with not only fondness, but an openness that speaks to us in our darkest times. These sentimental objects usually have a story, they have a past, a history, and something sacred in their inherent existence. 

Whether it's something that belonged to someone else, something we accumulated, something we earned, or something we bought, it doesn't depreciate the value it holds for us. It's never our obligation to get rid of it, or give it away just because someone else wants it. Read the full story below for all the juicy details.

  • This woman seems completely reasonable and rational. She's already given to multiple people from her late mother's inheritance. When it comes to jewelry, people will stop at nothing to get their hands on the valuable diamonds, rings, necklaces, and bracelets.

    Our mother sadly passed away when we were kids, and I got about 90% of her jewelry and other "girly" stuff like clothes,

    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

    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

    I honestly don't know Chloe very well and I'm not the most social and charismatic person, so I

    thought I would definitely let her choose some jewelry so we can do something together.

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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.
    via u/beyondallgalaxy
  • 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

    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

    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.
    via u/beyondallgalaxy
  • 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?
