The right dress can make you feel confident again, especially during events where you need that boost.

See why this woman’s sister doesn’t get that she doesn’t want her to look great for her ex’s big day.

Check it out.

AITA for refusing to let my sister borrow my expensive dress to wear to my ex-fiancé’s wedding?

I have a younger sister, Mia, and we’ve always had a complicated relationship.

She’s often been jealous of me and my achievements.

Last year, my fiancé, Ben, dumped me super suddenly and very publicly.

Things might be getting better.

He’s now engaged to my former “friend,” Zoe.

Their wedding is next month, and honestly, this whole thing has been rough on me.

Recently, I bought a stunning, expensive designer dress for a fancy charity event I’m going to next month.

It’s a special dress, and I felt like I deserved to treat myself after everything.

Yesterday, Mia saw the dress and immediately asked to borrow it to wear to Ben and Zoe’s wedding.

But here comes even more drama.

She said, “It’s perfect! I need to look amazing, and you’re not even using it right now.”

I was floored.

I told her no, that it’s for my event, and it would feel so wrong for her to wear it to that wedding.

She got super mad and called me ridiculous and selfish, telling our parents I’m a terrible sister for saying no.

AITA for not letting her borrow my dress, especially for that wedding?

Here is what folks are saying.

It’s pretty brazen.

Exactly. Entitled people think you need to justify things like this.

Get your own dress, sis.

It ain’t happening.
