Fathers Day

Georgie Girl's picture

What is everyone doing? My Dh and I do not share family and I am really confused as to what to do. He tolerates my kids and I tolerate his kids, so it is not like there is a whole loving pseudo family here or anything. I hate these kind of "family days."

A Very simple Vent

Gia's picture

I just have a simple question(s)...

Why did we get into this life?
Why is it that we couldn't back off early in the "getting to know the person" stage?

I know I said "YES" to all of this... and I know this is NOT how I usually sound, but right now I'm just really DOWN...

Being with a man without a constant reminder of his past (child, BM... etc...) would have been much easier... I'm jealous of all of those who have that. To the point in which it HURTS to see friends in a marriage without having to deal with all these feelings and all this BullSh!t...

Just for kicks!

I am sitting here paying bills and it hit me...All the silly things we do just to irritate the BM's.

I sign the CS checks, med. reimbursement checks and I make sure to address the envelope too just so she can see my name and my handwriting. Goofy huh?

I also put the phone in my name so that when the stepturds call her from here my name pops up on her phone. Wink

SD14 has moved back in, let the Games Begin

Ahhhhhhhhhhh, the sweet screech of BM in the morning is such a wonderful thing. DH has sent two emails to BM asking for her input and concerns with SD14 and she is not responding to her email. She did; however, get SD17 phone DH last night and try and ream him a new a$$hole, he was sad, but not surprised, so BM is ramping up the PAS again.

First thing this morning, there's BM on the phone screeching at DH about letting SD14 run away from her issues, etc, etc, etc. He just said "Whatever" and hung the phone up on her :jawdrop: Alright DH.

Ahem...She wanted $1,200...she got $210

I'm on cloud 9!

So....BM and FH are using the courts to help settle their issues.

Actually...all issues were settled in a Separation Agreement that they worked on together last summer until, that is, FH refused to the amount of spousal support she demanded.

BM took FH to court.

In Canada we have 3 'cushions' before the couple ends up in court. Case Conference, Settlement Conference, Trial Management Conference...then court.

major blowup over this now-don't know what to do.

So the whole issue with FH going into BM's house caused a major blowup..I really really regret moving out of my place..I had a beautiful 2 bedroom condo..and was so happy there, I got with FH and we moved into a 3 bedroom apt. because he had SS.

I sold ALL my furniture and have no $$ to move or buy anything. The only thing I have is a tv, and my daughter's new bedroom set.

update on BM getting SD8 full-time...

squeegie_beckenheimer's picture

Well, it's official...BM has told my husband that she's moving 40 minutes away by June 30th. This would mean that our summer plans are now forced to change & that after summer, BM will have SD8 full-time (us every other weekend). Amazing that it's happened so fast considering that just last week she was telling my husband that it could be another year before she moves! What a liar! Luckily, it wasn't such a big surprise because we never believe a word she says.
