Question Would it be wrong to ask for something back from a family member?

When H and I were going through our D (we reconciled) I gave my sister my $200 leather coat that H bought me our first Christmas together. When I gave it to my sister I thought H and I were going to get a D and I honestly didn't care to keep something from him so I gave it to my sister. I don't know if she ever wears it b/c I have never seen her wear it. For all I know she could of donated it, sold it, or gave it to someone else.

Now that H and I are back 2gether I would kind of like that coat back. I know it's Indian Giving but I do want it back. Would it be wrong of me to ask for it back or should I let it go and just realize I was stupid for giving it to her?

I haven't told H I gave it to her yet as I don't want to hurt him by telling him I gave her the coat, his first Christmas gift to me.

Would it be wrong to ask for it back?

It's not wrong at all. Anyone with any smarts know that people going through emotional traumatic periods often make rash decisions. She's your sister she should understand that and gladly give you the coat back. Maybe you haven't seen her in it because she had it put away for when you were in a more rational frame of mind!
