Input: I found out a couple of days ago that my cousin stole cryptocurrencies from me and I have been able to prove most of it. He will not admit it yet is offering to pay me back the funds. He at first demanded an apology from me for accusing him, then shifted his tone once I told him I'd been able to pin down some of the transactions back to accounts he'd used in the past. Unfortunately, he won't admit it until he sees the proof..

My cousin's relationship with my brother has already been ruined by episodes like this over the past few years, where my cousin has been distrustful, a thief and manipulative. My mother also does not trust him and has her own theories about things he may have done.

His mother, father and him were due to come over to our families for Xmas lunch. He has now decided not to come (which in my opinion is the correct decision). He obviously won't tell his Mom about the situation between both of us now so she will likely think it's my brother's fault he is not coming. My mom has asked me to text him, to thank him for reimbursing me (despite not admitting it) and say we should let this slide for Xmas. However, I cannot do that.

This is all likely to snowball and cause a rift between my Mum and her sister, who are very close.

AITA for a) not waiting until after Xmas to do all of this and b) not wanting to forgive him so soon?
