My brother (23m) and I (25f) were visiting our parents when we decided to get some food delivered. I offered to pay for everyone’s meals and my brother offered to use his app since he got free delivery. I told him to tell me the price of the order and I’d send him the money. He wanted me to just give him my credit card information. I said I’d rather just send him the direct amount. When he asked why I told him because last time he had my card information on his phone he used it a bunch and never paid me back. He gave the excuse that he was a kid back then and he wouldn’t do that now. I still refused and he told me to use my own phone which I did with no problem. I ordered our food and the rest of the afternoon went well, my brother was cold to me but I didn’t care.

Before I left or dad told me I should have just gave him my card to prevent drama. I replied that my brother could have just taken the money to prevent drama. I also added that my brother had nothing to be mad about; he got his food, he didn’t have to pay and he still had his free delivery. The only reason he is mad is because his plan to steal my credit card information failed. My father then called me a horrible sister and said I should have more faith in my brother. He also pointed out that money transfer apps take a couple days for the money to move and my brother probably didn’t gave the funds to cover the cost at the moment. My mother remained neutral on the issue and didn’t want to get involved.

I feel I have every right to not want to give someone my card information especially if that someone misused it in the past. Or should I have like my dad said had a little more faith in my brother?
