So I (16F) told my aunt (48F) that she’s not my family anymore. Our family owned a big cottage and a forest near it for at least 200 years and it has Always been passed down. Currently it’s owned by my father and my aunt. The cottage desperatly needed a new roof (the old one was literally falling apart at this point). So my father worked his ass off to make enough money for it. Him, me and my brother (19M) spent every. single. weekend. In the forest cutting/getting out the wood so we could sell it. We agreed with my aunt that she’ll give us half the money we’ll need. Well, the time came and we FINALLY got enough money. We called our aunt over and told her the amount of money we’ll need - 47,000 USD (So that’s 23,500 usd from her). She said that there’s no way she can get her hands on that much money. My father told her that it’s okay. That she can give us the money she spared. We actually did save up the full 47,000 because we thought we would use the extra money to renovate a little. She ended up giving us NOTHING. Not. a. Single. Penny… All was good until i found out that she went on 6 holidays (all international) with her 2 childern (4m, 11f) in the next 2 months and is going to Paris next week. Yesterday we met again and i was PISSED. We spent our whole summer and a year prior working our asses off. And She had the audacity to say something in the lines of “That colour could have been better” when She first saw the new roof. I lost it. I screamed something like “Oh i’m sorry you don’t like it. Maybe if you gave us some of the money you promised, you’d get to choose the colour. This Is our family’s legacy, but you don’t even care enough to spare a few damn bucks. You’re not my family anymore.” I’m usually pretty collected And calm, So hearing me yell visibly scared the f outta her. She And her husband currently refuse to speak to me.

So am i the asshole?
