Am I wrong for asking my niece to ship back my clothes to me that she took?

I let her borrow some running shorts and a shirt and she took them back to Oklahoma with her

These weren’t cheap running shorts and they were the only pair I had that fit plus my husbands bought them for me during a trip, so am I wrong?

This is why I hate lending things to people, it's terrible to have to beg to get your own belongings back,

No you're not wrong to say it, she needs to have respect for other people's items, needs to know she just can't have what she wants when she wants it.

@SW-User to boot she’s 21 and I didn’t want to let her borrow them

She stayed over my house as a way to weasel her way out of spending time with my brother she made everyone so uncomfortable
But my husband put me on the spot
So I lent her what would fit her, she said she’d leave them and I expected her to do so
