Okay...I love being here to listen and to be reminded but tell me honestly...
Should I have said "sure...no problem..."?
I keep thinking about Bramblerose's post way back that was labelled "do you want to be right or do you want to be married?"
I'm not doing this to be right. I just don't feel comfortable with D being away seven days with him and Miss Priss, I would have also considered 2 or 3 days if he had just been nicer about it.
He's now accusing me of not wanting him to have a relationship with his daughter.
That isn't the truth.
She's only five years old...she still needs her mom to go to a public bathroom...

Terri, he hasn't had his daughter overnight in 3 years and he wants to start in an unfamiliar place.
You aren't comfortable, he's not trying to reassure you, he's being horrible and making demands.
I have little doubt that if he really put his mind to putting you at ease about the situation, he could probably do it. But, he's not going to that effort.
So honestly, I have no problem with you not agreeing to his demand.
