Am I the jerk for banning my mom from my house after she stole my wedding dress?

0:04.8

My mom has a tendency to be very reactive. She's also extremely superstitious and sentimental.

0:10.7

I am not. I am currently planning a wedding and we are both broke students, so our budget for the

0:16.2

wedding is very low. My mother-in-law asked if I wanted her wedding dress. She got married in 2019

0:22.7

and it lasted nine months. I'd refer to the wedding as some type of internal crisis where she

0:28.1

believed she had to be married by 40 and was trying to make another man jealous. She cried

0:33.1

the morning of the wedding and kissed her boss on the lips right in front of the groom.

0:39.5

She is now very bitterly divorced but living happily with her boss. My mother-in-law offered

but she isn't that invested. I told my mom that I get where she's coming from but I'm wearing

the dress. Well my mom came over recently and she stole the dress. I called her and confronted her

1:29.3

and she said that she is disappointed that I am a shallow woman and want to wear a dress from an

1:36.1

adulteress with a failed marriage. I told her she had two hours to return it or I was calling

1:41.4

the cops. She did return it intact but I said she is banned from my house forever. My mom did

1:47.3

apologize and she cried. She feels like since the dress is okay I'm being too harsh. She cited

1:53.2

that if I have kids it wouldn't be fair to keep her banned and said I should understand this is
