Just Told DH I Hate SS21 F**king Guts

karenemoy's picture

And I mean it, I hate him. Drug addict apologized to my DH as part of his recovery and there is no mention of what he did to ME! I was acting like his parent for years - he lived with us for years. Now I know from Day 1 he only pretended to like me because he wanted money.

I told DH he will not be at any family functions and he has to pay me back for the money I gave him for school.

Now I am going to focus on moving on. I will NEVER lay eyes on the loser ever again.

Found this on an Aussie PAS website, really good tips for what you shouldn't do when dealing with an alienating parent.

what ever you do, you must not ...

Do not denigrate your ex in front of or to the children, this should have already been the case anyway, but now it is even more important. I personally believe that you should not build the ex up to the children either, as this may be seen as you confirming to the children that the ex is wise and correct, and indirectly, that they in fact should believe in what the ex is saying. Remain neutral in the children's minds.

O/T Getting married next weekend and freaking out!

I don’t post often even though there are numerous things that have come up in the last couple of months (SDstb13 refusing to visit, FDH having screaming matches with BM etc.), but since FDH has not been falling into the “Guilty Daddy” or “BM Puppet” role, I am leaving it up to him to deal with his issues.

This issue affects me directly, and it is my upcoming wedding – next Saturday, the 16th.

SS's birthday, what a great start (not)

SS did not come out the whole day, not even to eat. He disappeared again last night. Then, around 12 midnight (we think), he snuck out. He comes back in at 6 am this morning. He was drunk. Are you kidding me?? Thank god my kids were asleep. My husband asks him where he has been. You know what SS says? "just been whoring around again". And then the next second he starts crying and locks himself in his room. My husband tried getting him to come out and he would not. We wanted to remove the door.

WHAT PARENTING SKILLS??!!!

BM posted a picture on Facebook of SS18 with a lite sparkler coming out of the crack of his behind. His pants were pulled down to his knees and the sparkler was right in the middle of his crack :jawdrop: And the caption under it read..."ha ha ONLY MY KIDS WOULD DO THIS HAPPY FORTH OF JULY EVERYONE" Is it just me? Or was that nasty!!

I'm selfish, and I know it.

I wish that DH didn't have kids.
I wish that we were able to spend this time in our marriage (we were married in April) as "newlyweds".
I wish that I didn't feel so abandoned when skids do something "amazing", and it's "kids this, kids that".
I wish that I wasn't selfish, and I could accept all of it better. After all, I knew what I was getting into, right?

Talk with DH (Not Too Good)

I had my talk with hubby about backing off with discipline and other issues with ss6. I said I would feed or clothe him and pay bills because it effects our finances but any discipline is his and spending time is his. If something makes me mad I will simply tell DH and he can handle it. My skid knows EXACTLY what he is doing at this house. BM spoils the snot out of him and she wants me gone so skid is more loyal to BM. She truly spoils him and is disneyland mom. No rules or discipline except when she is around us or someone then she acts like a real mom.

Well I was in a lot of pain earlier and then realized I was bleeding. I was a little over a month pregnant and I lost the baby. I didn't even now I was pregnant, I thought maybe a few days ago and was going to go get a test this weekend. I don't need the test now. I don't know why I am so emotional over this I didn't even know I was pregnant and I wasn't far along but I still can't stop crying. To make things worse my SS is here and I can't even stand to look at him right now I just want him to leave but he is going to be here till Monday.
