I am a little upset tonight as I am starting to wonder who I am anymore. I was once a single and loving it independent and in love with my freedom career minded kinda gal. Six and a half months ago that changed when I married my DH and became Stepmom to his now 8 year old son. I am upset because tonight I realize just how much I am mourning that freedom I once so enjoyed. The girls from school are getting together tonight for a few drinks. But I couldnt go. Nope. DH is on afternoons and since I get off work at 7 on Fridays I get the responsibility of his child.
Steptalkers, I want to apologize for my haphazardly written previous posts. I was at work and just full of despair. Allow me to introduce myself with a little more information.
Not.
I'm just really irritated right now and need to vent...BM told FH that she was going to pick up SD tomorrow night instead of Sunday morning about 3 weeks ago because her new son's Baptism is early Sunday morning. Great, less time with SD and a free Saturday night are fine with me. My aunt is having a "Dos de Mayo" party tomorrow night (since Cinco de Mayo is on a weeknight) so SD going home after dinner tomorrow is even better cuz FH and I get to go to a party afterwards, have a few margaritas and relax right?
Wrong.
Sorry to end that last one so quickly, but I'm at work and was out of time. I can't get on this at home because my wife checks my history everyday, but that's another story altogether. I am just so scared of losing my wife, but I'm afraid that if I don't do something soon it's going to end badly for all of us. As far as the couples counseling, that hasn't worked either. I feel like I get blamed for EVERYTHING!!! Anyway, that you for the advice and anymore is greatly appreciated. I would be more than happy to talk to anybody who is going through that same situation as me.
im new, but ive posted some stuff with the background of how my mil is nuts. She has verbally attacked me many times, threatened my fh.
I know that this sounds horrible, and I feel like a horrible person for even having these thoughts, but it's true. I can't even pretend anymore. I've written a couple of blogs in the past kinda venting about him, but it's gotten SO much worse now. The problem is that my wife and I have had a lot of issues over this, and our relationship isn't looking so hot right now either. I love her, but I just can't live with her son. I've attempted counseling for him, but he won't talk, and my wife doesn't feel that he even needs to go to counseling.
so my fiance and i are getting married in july and it seemes that drama with his mom and exw have just been getting even more insane. lucky for me, my fh wanted our wedding to be about our love for one another and nothing else so he pushed me to go to jamaica to get married...best idea ever, i realize now!! his ex is now saying stuff like hes a horrible father for not having ss there (she wont let us take him to jamaica) and all kinds of other stuff.
Today I'm celebrating the light at the end of the tunnel. I know some of you won't understand this feeling. Some of you are have skids that are sweethearts. I envy you. I came to this with hopes and dreams and plans, but found SD was too far gone and guilt-parenting deeply entrenched.
ok, so i love that ive found this site to vent and see what other are doing who have to deal with the same stuff as me, but i am hoping that i can also get advice on parenting stuff since i dont yet have kids of my own!
yesterday, my fh exw said that she thinks her son is unhappy when he stays with us and that i am pushing everyone out of his life including his son. She said that he really needed both parents. but, in the next sentence she was so kind to offer(yeah right) that she would take 70% custody of him with out going to court for child support, and that we can have him on the weekends. Then began bashing fh and i, which is when he told her to get and her car and leave. (she showed up un announced at his work) so here are my questions and issues:
