Married with 2 step sons and Ex wife issues (HELP)

newmom01's picture

Hello, I will try to make this short, but also not leaving anything out. I met a man with two sons at that time they were 5 and 6, they did not live with him. They visited every other weekend and did not EVER come over on holidays or anytime school was out. I was always at his place or he was always at mine. Although I knew he had children and I did not, I saw the amount of time he spent with them and said to myself if this relationship continues or gets serious I can handle it (relationship with kids).

GG thinks that the reason I vented about steplife is because I'm jealous of the life the Behemoth has with hubby number 2. They have photos of being out on the town together. He described her in that photo as "looking pretty and attractive" etc. It's fairly clear that because of our financial status (aka the Behemoth draining half his pay for the next 13 more years) we don't have the money to live it up like the Behemoth and hubby do. He also compared his "cheating" on the Behemoth when she withheld sex for months at a time to my venting on the internet. ???!!!!

Kinda O/T but it is about my ex!

My ex H has been writing our son and he has been telling him to tell me that he loves me. My son will not respond to that. then ex h has his sister contacting me on FB and telling me that he loves me.

W#hat should i do and how should I handle this? I have told his sister that he needs to stop and he needs to stop telling my son to tell me too b/c that should be between them.

I am really getting uncomfortable with him trying to get the mess to me that he still loves me. We have been divorced for 16 years.

what do you agree with that bm does (seriously). bm does not give sd 14 the opportunity to "grow up" although i obviously did not "know" her dd like she does, i disagreed with out talking to bm, and gave sd the "tools" to act out....long story read my previous posts-it irritated me to no ends mainly made me irritated about the choices i made with sd and flat out told sd14 i now see why bm does what she does with her.

...the only thing I agree on regarding BM

Although I will never agree with BM's tactics and drama, I can see why she blew up last night with SD15.

All of us as parents and step-parents have those moments where we feel absolutely unappreciated and taken for granted. You ask children, no matter the age, to respect their property, yours, the house, help now and then, etc. By the 7th, 8th, 9th, bazillionth time that you have to ask for help, you're inches short of a breakdown. You want to throw your hands up in frustration and run away from it all.

Step kids full time?? Anybody??

I read alot of posts and alot of people only see their step kids part time. Boy how I wish! Unfortunately thats not the case with us. Up until November of last year, we had 6 kids living with us full time. My 4 (5,6,8,10) and his 2 (13,16). In November SD16 moved in with her bf. She some how managed to get herself knocked up...geez wonder how that happened! Anyway, my kids aren't angels, don't get me wrong but I have never come across kids quite like his. So manipulative, vendictive and LIARS!!

Maybe I had it all wrong... all along..

My cycle was around 5 days late. I knew it was comming, I could feel it. Its always the same. For some reason it was a bit late, but it happened before, so i didnt think of it much.

He kept asking every day did i get it yet. Asked me do i know what could it mean if its so late.. like i could be pregnant.

I said im not, and it will come. I asked 'why are you freaking out about it?'

He answered 'because it wasnt in my plans yet'.

So he has his own plans, and who gives a shit what I want.

Dearest BM....

I have come up with a list. It is a list of 10 words that I feel best describes you. I could have come up with so many more but i thought 10 was a good number. Included with these words is a definition, so to speak. My definition...or my reason for choosing that specific word. So here goes...
