Needed to make a throwaway excuse the new account, shaking typing this bc i feel like my entire family is turning against me over something completely unfair.

So my grandma passed away two years ago and she left me (26f) her vintage diamond engagement ring. It’s absolutely gorgeous and meant the world to me bc me and her were super close. She’s explicitly put it in her will that it goes to ME.

Now my brother Leo (30m) just told the family he’s planning to propose to his gf of 9 months. The problem is Leo is terrible with money and basically broke. My mom called me yesterday and asked if I would "gift" my grandmas ring to Leo so he can propose with a family heirloom and save money. I told her absolutely not. first of all, it’s MY ring that grandma wanted me to have. second of all, he’s been with this girl for less than a year.

My mom got furious and I mean she blew up. She said i’m being selfish and hoarding it since i’m already engaged to my fiancé and he already bought me a ring. I told her I plan to wear it on my other hand and keep it for my children. Now Leo is texting me saying i’m ruining his life and his gf deserves a nice ring, and my mom just dropped a bomb saying if i don't hand the ring over by Sunday, she and my dad are pulling their financial contribution from my wedding next summer and won’t even attend. Stuck because despite how angry I am and how unreasonable they’re being I don’t wanna lose my family 😭
