This is probably the first time I've admitted it to anyone, even though it happened like 3 years ago.<br><br>My mom (48f) and dad (49m) got divorced when I (21f) was 18. Dad had been cheating on my mom for years prior and the divorce was very messy. Dad was awarded most of the assets, including their family home, where all of the good memories were made. My mom was left with nothing. The only thing my mom had from her late father was his 1950's gold plated wedding band, a silver locket of his and a gold necklace with a pendant of his name engraved on it.<br><br>When I turned 18, I was given full control of my moms finances and was in charge of getting into her apartment. She asked me to get her mother's wedding band, the locket and the necklace, so she could sell them for a car. I used to really love the necklace. When I was about to leave I forgot to take the jewelry box but when I realized I took it a few days later I hid it in my room. I had no clue what I was going to do with it and my mom didn't want it anymore so I assumed she wouldn't mind.<br><br>I had been with my boyfriend for about 6 months at that point. He would always compliment me about the necklace so when I was hiding it I told him he could have it. I just thought that it would mean a lot to my mom if I gave it to him. Fast forward to about a year later. My mom found out I had the jewelry box and confronted me. I lied for about 10 minutes straight. She asked for it and I refused and called her selfish and horrible. She was crying and I don't even remember what came over me. I yelled at her for a long time and called her a terrible mom for even wanting something back that she clearly didn't care for. My dad always gave me a bad view of her.<br><br>She moved back to England a few months later and we haven't spoken since. I haven't spoken to my dad since then either. I feel so guilty and my boyfriend just thinks I'm being dramatic. I wish I could take it back. I really hope she found what she wanted with the necklace but I can't help but feel guilty.
