Tonight is SD's first band concert. 1) My brother was in the band from 6th grade on so I have had MORE than my fill of craptastic concerts. 2) BM will be there. DH isn't feeling well so if she shows her ass it's gonna get UGLY.
He's one of those people that instantly flips the ASSHOLE switch when he's sick (and acts like a big huge baby at the same time WTF MAN).
Well it was a hard weekend. I deleted all of my step children and all of my husband's relatives from my Facebook account after my oldest darling adult step daughter posted this, "What happens when you fuck a married man? 5 step children who are out spoken! fucking deal with it in a mature manner. Don't talk shit about my sister and actually your STEP CHILD."
Ok I'll start off with short story fist my 2 SD have been telling lies making me and my DH look bad to his EX and her family and friends. She took DH to court got primary of the kids now we don't see them much and when we do problems, so I don't like problems so it kinda works out. Well my father in law asked my DH to help him move which is fine no big thing hate that my hubby's gone from me but his dad needs help.
When I got home from work yesterday FDH told me about this. I hope BM was just having a bad day, and that this isn't the beginning of anything...
Okay Ya'll I have read your comments and know what I suggested may seem harsh to have said that she give up her legal rights, but I have seen it time and time again that if a person is only concerned with the money and had already checked out as a parent they will ultimately give up their legal right in exchange for being financially free from their obligation.
I am a very simple person. I like a clean house, I like to take care of the things that I have and I dont ask or do much of anything that is out of my means. I love surprises especially when i do not expect a thing. I do not get many of these because for some reason my husband and step children dont seem to plan things that well.
I came to a realization recently. That when the turning point in this blended family came it was because I finally stopped fighting with DH and the kids. I stepped back and realized (thanks to this board)that it was futile. They were not my kids and no matter what I felt they were not a reflection of me. Only my son was. I think looking back now, DH's moment, was when I pointed out that why were we allowing the kids to talk to me in a manner that he wouldn't allow them to talk to another adult in their lives. I pointed it out a couple of times.
This is me being honest and self-critical. And it's me being emotional and rolling with pregnancy hormones. Maybe I shouldn't even write this so that others can see it and criticize me for it...I just needed to get this out.
I'm struggling with being a step mom. It used to be that the only struggle I had with stepparenting was the fact that we have to deal with BM and her relatives. But now it's starting to trickle into my feelings for the kids and that really scares me.
So, my exh's girlfriend moved in with him. His last one was a nightmare, calling me and asking personal questions about him and why we divorced. He has a baby with her and she's refusing him visitation because she doesn't want "her daughter around a new person", lol. I told DH that I think I'll tell the new girlfriend about this site as she'll need it to deal with that crazy BM.
I thought in the beginning of our new relationship I would be helping my hudbands kids. Before u judge, let me give u a scoop on these evil girls. First SD, her mother passed and Dad(whom is not really her bio dad, but has raised her from 2), with no questions asked, takes "his daughter" so she can be with him. What an ungrateful kid. She was 14, now 16. She "fell in love" with a boy and life as we know it, sucks!! There is so much drama now, I'm ready to take my kids and go as far as I can away from this mess.
