I'm unsure whether my feelings are reasonable or not.
I gave my OH a gift, it's a soft toy, but it had meaning nonetheless. His DD spotted it and latched on to it; she loves it as much as he does and that's lovely.
Now DD wants to take the gift back to DM's house (a place where things have been known not to come back from, although we don't discuss/emphasise this to DD).
I expressed to my DH that this upset me. He roughly told me I was unreasonable and that his DD wants and feelings came first.
Yes, of course she comes first, and she's welcome to bring anything she likes that belongs to her to her Mother's house. But this is a gift from me to my husband, it shouldn't matter that it's a toy, it's something meaningful between us... I feel disrespected... but I also understand his point so I feel stupid too...
