BM does it again!

Storm76's picture

We have SS10 every other weekend, and BM has gone and booked to go away with SS10 on what is meant to be OUR weekend with him! She's already paid the money & told SS10, who is excited about it, so what are we supposed to do? If we stick to our guns & insist on having him that weekend then SS10 is upset because his mum has promised him a mini-holiday & we're not letting him go, but if we say 'OK' then we're letting her get away with walking all over us & manipulating when we have contact!

Updated: We are in the new house and...

Everyone is thrilled...all the kids have the room and space they wanted, wife loves spending money and decorating (LOL joke people,,,but not really) and I have a little office in the distant corner of the house all to myself ( can't tell you how GREAT it is to have a room where there aren't any kids toys or things around lol). For those not familiar, my SD 11 was threatning to go live with BD because when we saw this house and decided to buy it I told her that she would NOT get the bedroom with the bathroom in it, that MY Bio daughter would get it.

Greetings!

I'm new to both this forum, and blogging in general, so I'd like to start with Hello! and thank you to all who use this forum and allow others to learn from their situations. In just a few weeks I've learned so much, and am so grateful to all of you who share; I hope that I'll be able to give back appropriately! http://www.steptalk.org/images/smileys/smile.png

My pain level has decreased now down to 4 and feeling so much beter. But I still have to wear the brace for 12-16 weeks yet and NOT do anything.(sigh)

Over Protective BM

Still_Frustrated's picture

I live with (common law) a woman and have lived with her and her BS , 13 year old son for nine years. We have an 8 yr old daughter together. For years I have watched the BM spoil her son ..she says she protects him beause I am always on his case, nagging him and "yelling" at him....she admits a lot of it is to do with the guilt of separating him from his father. I don't ask for much. He pretty much has taken over our one t.v. room, a den in the basement...I don't watch a lot of t.v.

Had to gush and brag lol

Fiance got a call today from BM. She was calling to ask him to buy her parents a laptop...no joke. Because they already spent their taxes...and somehow that is his problem?

He told her, absolutely not, not to call to talk to him unless it had to do with the kids, and to only call before 7 as he had told her over and over again. Then reemed her out about having told SS5 about her baby being blind from supposed child abuse by her boyfriend, which he had asked her not to discuss with him.

Step Daughter issues

Hi I am a newby to this site too. As you I stumbled onto it as well. I guess it must have been meant to be. I have a blended family I have two Bio boys that are 14 and 16. My youngest is special needs ADHD/ODD. However I have been working with him for the past thirteen years. My oldest is just fine and they are both great kids. My husband and I got married 4 years ago. I thought my life was complete I had some playmates now for my children and I had a little step daughter that I could dote over. My husband has two bio kids one girl now 11 now and a boy now 14.

Has anyone dated a Divorced man with 2 kids long distance?

Yes this is probably an impossible sitation to most people's standards. But somehow we've made it work for over a year now. We are talking about getting married and me making the move out to him. The current dating situation for the past year has been to see each other on the weekends...rotating every other at my place and his. I have met his kids and love them dearly. But the fristrating part is that when I do spend time with him and his kids it feels like I'm starting all over again.

Permission to hit BM granted.... :)

My BF said last night after BM made a comment that if she were to touch him, make a move on him, or do anything else I am allowed to knock her ass out. Smile That makes me feel better... I think she would have to like try to kiss him or something before I take it that far, but I feel a little more powerful.

What?? Do I have a giant booger hanging out of my nose or something???

Truelight made a good dinner. Just a simple soup and crackers, but really good and filling. So, I'm sitting there, and I notice that Starr, KittyCat and Sheldon are all staring at me practically throughout the entire dinner. It's not unusual for Starr (my BD9) because that's what she does, and I'm used to it. I look at them, and they look away. Okay, I know I was a bit of a bitch yesterday, but I'm like that sometimes, and they know when to expect it because I'll usually give them a PMS warning, but I can't think of anything I've done today.
