Well, we didn't win the powerball last night LMAO....someone in Indiana just won 314 million....was wondering if that was any one here.. man I can't tell you the hours BF and I have spent laughing and planning how that would go LOL...what would you do if you found out you had just won 314 million?

Well, here we go again. If the 10pm phone call last night wasn't enough (and it's not even our week) we get another one of those phone calls from her delivered through the 8 year old ss. This time...ss wants to play sports.

What is up with this attitude I keep getting from BF about just "getting over it?' It's like when I come to him and say what is hurting me...how I feel about the psycho drama all I get it ""What do you want me to do about it?" and just "get over it?" like I asked for this?

All this stress just made me explode. BF and I have been IMing all day, as he seems to communicate better on the IM than in person sometimes. I finally spilled my guts about how I feel about how I am being treated, and addressed every issue I have.

Well, we did have a party for ss. (See blog...it's hitting the fan and I need advice.) We had a constant stream of phone calls from BM trying to sabotage it, as we expected. But HE (ss) did NOT get to leave ....(so proud of BF)and she is in all out war mode right now.

We are having a birthday party for ss in a couple of hours. BGranM (AKA Ex) has been doing everything to sabotage this. He is turning 8 next Sat, but this is our weekend. Ex just called and told child "We are doing this and that with so and so and such and such..' and if you would rather do that there is nothing they can do to stop you blah blah...Child hung up the phone with her and announced to us after he opens his presents he is leaving to go to such and such and that there is nothing we can do to stop him.

Ok Ok to be fair to my boyfriend...I showed him what I wrote (I hope I didn't break a cardinal rule) and he couldn't believe that no one wrote anything in his behalf! He is a good man. I do believe he loves me and we are going through a rocky time.

Until I recently found this site, I felt so alone but now I realize that dealing with what I am going through is not all that uncommon...and all you ladies, just reading your stories, your frustrations etc has given me comfort and more than that... hope. (I don't know if comfort is the right word, but I don't feel so alone in this battle as before.) I am going through my own divorce which is at the end. Other than the shock and horror of finding out my ex husband had 4 affairs during our marriage, we have had a decent divorce. We don't have children, assets, etc, so there has been really nothing in the drama department. We still are nice to each other, and rarely speak to each other and honestly since he lives in a different state, it has been easier to move on (at first I didn't think that was possible)but we have been seperated for a long time and I decided last Oct. that I was ready to begin meeting new people.That was a hard step for me. In Jan. I met my boyfriend. I fell in love with him shortly after that. He is going through a divorce as well. I guess I was niave in thinking that divorces were in general like well mine LOL boy was I wrong! This is such a mess I don't know if me sitting here trying to explain it will even make much sense. But I am reaching out in hope that any advice will help me. My boyfried and his ex have no children of their own. His step daughter however had a child when she was a teenager and as she was so young etc at the time an agreement was made that the two of them would raise the child. They never adopted the child. But they went to court when the child's father decided he wanted the child and that ended up with him voluntarily signing over his parental rights as he ran out of money to fight them. As no adoption was ever sought, the court divided the gaurdianship between the three of them each having one third of the rights to this child (the three being my boyfriend, his ex and the ex's daughter. The child's mother who is now 25 and has two other children by two different men, has been raised as this child's sister not his mother and she doesn't make many decisions about the care of this child as she often says, "I can't handle him etc" Back in December, my boyfriend discovered that his now ex was having an affair with an old lover. (We have found out from her family that she has been married 3 other times, each one ending with her having an affair with this same man...go figure... we also found out she has had 2 other children (between marriages) that after they were born and she was inconvienced by them gave them away...one was like 2 years old when she was "given away." My boyfriend's step daughter was not given away, but she has no clue who her real father is.
