Well I'm new to the "stepmother" thing or at least I will legally be in July. I've known my future husbands son since he was two and now he's eight. We have a great relationship , I have no problems with my future SS. All my problems lie with his BM. Let me star by saying we are all very youn, I'm 26, he's 26, and she's 25! We're all babies still! So to get back to the story, I have many issues with the "EX"! I have nothing to do with why thier relationship did not work out. They were finished long before I came along.
