Waste of head space

Want my life back's picture

I'm beginning to really resent ever meeting my DH and the stress he has caused me and our bio children. It is like he has always done whatever makes him and those half wits happy these past 16 years. I don't want them to be a part of my life anymore but the problem is they are fcuking taking up so much of my head space.

DH has two families

Has anybody else experienced the hurt that you feel your DH lives a double life with two families. I know that nothing will change the fact that his kids are part of his life but when he goes behind your back to visit adult daughter and grand skid and doesn't share it with you to deliberately withhold I feel it is lying. It is not him visiting it is withholding the truth. When I found out and asked him he blew up and told me he doesn't have to tell me- what is it I don't get- I thought relationships are built on honesty and sharing your life together and what happens in your day.

Confused and hurt

I spoke to DH three weeks ago about fathers day coming up and the importance to have our boys enjoy fathers day without the skids. He said he understood and would sort something else with the skids--ie go out to lunch--- DH had kept me in the dark about it until I had to raise the issue to give me peace of mind to what was occurring. It all got twisted around and Dh told me in his anger that his kids hate me and they would 't come around anyway- he won't accept that the adult skids layed the seeds years ago of hate, resentment, jealousy.

The answer is no

I am so proud of myself. It goes to show doesn't matter how many discussions about not wanting to be involved with the adult skids, the deluded DH keeps on believing I want to be involved. DH asked if I would like to go out to lunch with him and the adult skid for her birthday--I explained to him we have discussed this before, I'm not interested and the truth be known she wouldn't want me there anyway---enough is enough after 16 years--- who wants to listen to a 25 year tell everyone how great she is---I wanna vomit!!!

My DH has three adult skids and one grand skid. I have an adult daughter from first marriage and DH and I have two gorgeous boys together. I cringe at the sight of two of them and one I tolerate, as she has tried over the years. The grandskid is the innocent party in all of this and is a blank canvas as far as I'm concerned as she grows I hope her mother doesn't poison her mind about me. I find it difficult to bond to this child knowing what her mother is like.

No Privacy , adult skids just come around.

Is it unfair to request to DH to ask the adult skids and grandchild to ring to check to see if it is ok to come around. I'm getting fed up as I work all week, DH works long hours and the weekend time is precious, we have demands of sports with our two son's 10&11, which leaves little down time with the family. A few times we have as a family been enjoying a movie together or just being by ourselves as a family. It really makes me cringe when they come around uninvited- without any regard to our time, never ring beforehand. I have raise this issue with DH and he gets all defensive.
