Well I finally did it.

This past Monday I finally told my DH that out blended family wasn't working out and that I wanted a divorce.  I was honest with him that I did not love him like a wife should but I was also as kind as possible about it.  Well, he obviously didn't take it well that night.  Being told your spouse is not in love with you can't be easy to hear.  He is currently going through a custody battle over SD6 so the next night we sat down and calmly talked out the dissilusion of our marriage in the most peaceful way we can.

SD6 is so helpless.

SD6 refuses to do anything for herself.  She won't dress herself, buckle her seatbelt, put her shoes on, go to her room and get something she wants, the list goes on.  BM and DH both baby her so badly that they are doing her a disservice.  They treat her like she is 3 instead of 6.  At school, SD6 does not act like this.  She only does this with people who she knows will do everything for her.  

I think I'm done.

So, DH and I have not been good for a while now. I have not been happy.  He and his kids have all been getting on my nerves and I've begun to resent them being in my house.  They are like the house guests that will never leave.  DH has been acting different the last 6-7 months and it's not been attractive, constantly interrupting people while they are talking, wetting the bed, and even peeing in the middle of the floor in the middle of the night.  Like WTF?!

I'm not sure if I'm made for this gig

Everyone here knows that being a stepparent is hard.  But now I'm questioning whether my marriage is worth the fight.  MY husband is not a bad man and I know he loves me, but he takes advantage of me.  He makes almost twice as much $, but I pay most of the bills.  I do 90% of the house work and cooking.

Help: Feeling confused

I am a stepmom to two kids, sd6 and ss13.  They recently moved in and tensions have been higher than normal between DH and myself.  I am also a biomom to 3 boys. 18 and twins11.  The twins are both into sports and recently we've had a game or practice almost every night between the two of them.  ExH and I get along years after a tumultuous divorce.  He and I have been spending a lot of time together because of the boys' games and it's stirring up some old feelings of how easy we used to laugh and how natural it was for us to know what the other was thinking before we said it out loud.

Stepkids have invaded my home.

Backstory: I have 3 bio boys from a previous marraige 18, and twins11.  I have 50/50 custody of them and get along fairly well with their dad.  4 years ago, I met and fell in love with my now DH.  He has 2 kids of his own from two previous relationships B13 and G6. He had 50/50 of his daughter and EOWE with his son.  We've been married for almost 3 years now and when we married, he moved in with my kids and me. Fast forward to this past July.
