You are here

Feeling overwhelmed and...sad...

You know those moments when you just kinda feel like everything is coming down around you... yeah, that's me tonight.
I am just SO tired of the drama that comes with my DH's entire stinkin' family. His kids suck. They are selfish, unkind people (at least they're "adults" now.) My DH's family is SOFAR up BM's ass that if they sneeze, her hair flutters.
ANYTHING Dh tells his family goes straight to BM. My ILs think she "beautiful inside and out" (that's a direct quote) and since she is no longer their daughter in law, she is their "daughter in LOVE" (another direct quote.)
GAG.
We are planning a big move, back to my home state. I am actually getting really excited about this move, quit my job a few weeks ago, and should be gone by the end of June. Dh wanted to tell his family. Yay. Can't the m*f'ers just disappear? Smile So he calls his parents and they go on and on about how his kids will feel "abandoned" and that DH has "chosen his wife over his kids" blahblahblah. These "kids" are 19 & 23 and don't have anything to do with their father! The ONLY contact in the last year has been recently when SS met with DH and whined about he hasn't had enough time to "mourn his parents' divorce." Whatever, it's been 5 years.

Abandonment? Are they KIDDING? And, oh, yeah... ILs are gonna go running to BM with the info. Double yay. Didn't want her having DH's work information (he has a new job) because she files court hearings all the damn time... over stupid stuff. DH was a moron who agreed to pay college with no cap or other requirements. (Like, you know, PASSING.)

FML.
Now DH is all upset because he feels like his parents reamed him a new one. He feels like he's somehow disappointing them. He feels like a shitty dad.
And I'm "stealing" him away back to home state.

Wow, that is so freaking weird. It sounds like you and DH will be a LOT better off away from these toxic people!

Who cares what they say or think - hang on and make your move, then go from there. Its really all you can do. In the meantime, pray! or whatever healthy thing you do to cope.

Thinking of you and remember - this too will pass. Arghh!! I know, but there it is. HUGS

ive been through it..and my MIL used to babysit SD and BM's other 2 kids that she had after SD with 2 other men...It would disgust me nd hurt me so much but i never thought for one second of moving away cause SD was so young...

But ur skids are way older and they dont need the father...so screw everybody!!!!

good luck!!! Smile
