D15 never told me that she gave it away. I just discovered it. Much like I discovered my Ws A 3 years ago.

If you don't understand the rest, it doesn't appear that you care to.

I don't see where your post is kind or helpful.


RR17, I have to say, this reaction to Rose is a little troubling.

However, related to the sitch, It seems your beef should be with your daughter. "You should have spoken to me before giving your fish away."

I think your anger towards your W is misplaced. That you want to find fault with her. Your situation is such that I think it is unrealistic for you to expect her to handle the situation the way you would expect a W in a healthy marriage to handle it.

Anyway, I think you may should just take a deep breath and realize that in 5 years this fish thing won't matter one bit. As LoneWolf said, pick your battles.
