Friends

so BM called DH talking about how special ss is and how she’s gonna get custody back when she gets out. I thought the drama would at least be quiet while she’s in there. But no...

anyways I text my best friend and tell her what happened and she responds with well some people have fav with their kids. I respond with no if I lost my kids I would be fighting for all of them not just one. And then I ask her why she’s defending BM. She then comes back with well I’m just gonna leave this.

Now just some background. This is my friend that I can always talk crap with and she always let me vent to her. But every since she had her son three years ago our friendship has slowly been changing. Her son can do no wrong and it’s annoying to me. There were a couple times where our friendship did almost end because of her son. But I bury that and just try to ignore it when I’m around them. Me and DH hardly even go over there anymore. 

Im starting to wonder if it’s even worth it to hold on to the friendship.

It's difficult talking to non Step Parents because they don't have a clue what many of us deal with on a regular/daily basis. Maybe the two of you can go out and just be girls again. Have a night where talking about children is not allowed!

I’ve lost many of “friends” from complaining about steplife and BM. Many of them can’t relate or don’t want to relate. Some of them don’t want to dragged down into the drama or they really don’t care about your problems. Hindsight is 20:20; getting rid of those friends that didn’t want to hear my problems were good for the soul and it taught me not to complain or share too much of my life with people because they don’t actually care or understand unless they are going through a similar situation.

Why is BM calling your DH as if he's her bff confidante?

Does she not have friends she can shoot the sh!t with rather than calling your hubby?

Once she found out DH was awarded custody she started calling to talk to SS daily.  Haven't heard from her in a few days now.  She is currenlty in Rehab and I have no idea who her friends are.  They can't be that great if once she was alone she started getting high again.
