A little OT....should I be so jealous?

Amaurea's picture

So, my best friend got engaged to day in front of Cinderella's Castle in DisneyWorld. She and her fiancee have been together for 1 year.

BF and I have been together for 2 1/2 years, would love to get engaged/married but God only knows when we'll be able to afford it (of course, thanks to BM and the giant f**k up called SD).

BM changes her mind...and it only took 8 months!!

This past October, BM's husband passed away from a "seizure" (everyone pretty much knows it was a drug overdose/drug related...but we'll let that lie go for now). So she strikes a deal with my FH: if FH will allow her to change SD's last name to BM's (now dead) husband's last name, then FH can stop paying child-support forever. The reason for this being, if SD has BM's husband's name and BM files him as the main care-provider then the state will pay BM every month as if SD was his child.

What is wrong with these BMs?? (A little long)

Is it just a requirement for these BMs to be completely effed up? I'm sorry but I just have to vent about how crazy BM is. I just found out last night that BM has a new boyfriend that she "loves" and already has SD calling him "daddy"...let me give you the background as to why this is more proof that she is effed up though:

PLEASE let my life revolve around SD and BM!! Yay!!

Not.

I'm just really irritated right now and need to vent...BM told FH that she was going to pick up SD tomorrow night instead of Sunday morning about 3 weeks ago because her new son's Baptism is early Sunday morning. Great, less time with SD and a free Saturday night are fine with me. My aunt is having a "Dos de Mayo" party tomorrow night (since Cinco de Mayo is on a weeknight) so SD going home after dinner tomorrow is even better cuz FH and I get to go to a party afterwards, have a few margaritas and relax right?

Wrong.

Am I overreacting? What do you guys think?

BM seems to be over-stepping her boundaries lately as far as I'm concerned. For the last few weeks she has been REALLY friendly to FH. She used to be uber-bi@#h, now she's just sweet as pie. She used to give him a hard time about everything, only call/text him when she wanted something or to complain, and just hand off/pick up SD3 with little talk. NOW she never complains and is all buddy-buddy.

To All Step-moms

I was looking at the new website that was noted (step-family letter project) and I found this "letter" that was addressed to all step-moms. I found it very inspirational and uplifting and I thought I'd share so other SMs on this site won't miss it and can read it:

You all should be commended. Whether you’re married, nearly married or domestically partnered you should try to remember this one thing: you’ve done something not all women could muster the courage to do.
