Is this it??

Not sure where to begin. Been with my SO for 6 and half years. He has 2 kids 9 & 7. We have 2 more together 5 & 1. I've struggled to bond with his kids who come every other weekend but no staying as their mum wouldn't allow plus no room at our house (but has worked for me as a constant struggle). Got problems with SO and our lack of sex life, he says he's too lazy!!

Any difference??

Currently dreading the imminent arrival of the stepkids...

I met OH when they were just 1 and 3, now 6 and 8. I've never really bonded with them... I don't even really like them. I thought I liked kids, but I don't really like these two. 

I now have a 4 year old and 7 month old.  

Just wondered if stepkids are 'easier' when youve had kids previously? Maybe i never bonded with them because I didn't know what it was like with kids...  

Just thinking out loud really.

Thank you!!

Oh my days... I'm so glad I found this site. For so long I've been searching for somewhere where it's not deemed nasty and unkind to not actually like your stepkids!!

Why is it expected that you should like someone because they're children and they belong to your partner?!
