Can't win for losing

kayjay117's picture

I recently posted about how I felt my 5 1/2 month old marriage was railroaded before it began. How DH shuts me out of everything, never worked with me to establish my rightful place in our household, parented his sons (14 & 16) without rules, expectations, boundaries nor consequences for innapropriate behaviour, etc. etc. Well, I moved out yesterday. I didn't tell DH the exact day I planned to move but I told him enough so that if he paid any attention he could have figured it out. I've read somewhere that the most dangerous time for a woman is when she is trying to leave a SO.

Hey y'all-I'm alive and well (maybe a little insane)

I miss you guys-but I've been so tied up with A & P I've not had a spare moment...I mean, I am studying like 5 hours every day! I need all your good vibes-this stuff is tough. If I'd studied like this when I was in school, I would've aced everything!

Anyway, 1st module went really well. Got an A on my exam!. Hold the cheers tho-module 2 is on chemistry which I did not take in H.S.-for a reason. Really tough for me.

Plus, my son is now on temporary lay-off so he's here-and then his gf showed up...and H was here for four days, Thurs. thru Monday.

Furious with BM

bekkah2224's picture

At the first of November during our EOW visitation with SD11, BM sent DH a text telling him to buy SD11 a jacket because she needed one. At this time it had already gotten pretty cold in our area. DH ask SD11 if she needed a jacket and she said yes but not just any jacket she wanted a certain kind of jacket (expensive!) We do not have this kind of money. The jackets that BD5 wears are jackets that I buy at the end of the season when they are on sale. I buy them big enough so that she has it for the next year. DH responded to BM and told her to get her a jacket with cs.

Hotty Totty Colorado Girl is Ruhhhight Again...

As usual and as always....

So last Saturday my jackass (for the time being) exH proceeded to have my BS9 call me and ask that I buy the birthday present for his party that he was going to the following day....told me that his dad said that he was broke and the only way he could go is if I bought the present. So of course I bought the stupid present and texted my exH asking him at what point did he decide that he had NO shame. (That's a whole other story for another day)

Why am I so jealous over his 4 year old???

I am about to pull my hair out! I am in a relationship with a guy that I love very much. I can't picture being without him for two seconds and then when his daughter comes over and I feel that I go from the top of his list to the very bottom. She is 4 and from a previous relationship. I have 3 kids from a previous marriage. We also have one baby together. Here is my problem. He thinks she is the cats meow (with 4 other kids around) and it drives me nuts.

not getting ANY CS now :(

so a week or so ago i posted about the CS review we put in for SS who DH has custody of. they changed the amount at first, then while we away said a discrepancy was noted and that we wont get the additional but will still get the original amount. then we stopped getting the original amount but got the excess bc when the state sent the letter to BM's employer, it said a change TO $160 a month instead of AN EXTRA $160 a month.

Clothes – My Issue

BettyRay's picture

Help! I’m struggling with the clothes issue. I know it’s petty and it shouldn’t bother me but when SSon’s clothes (that we bought) disappear it’s like sand between my toes. I have been working hard not to let it get to me, I haven't said a word about it to DH for months, it doesn’t bother DH when they wear clothes that we’ve bought to BM’s, but it bothers me and here’s why:

BM never sends back the clothes. EVER. DH has to “remind” SSons repeatedly to bring stuff back, translation, he yells at SSons.

Another ZING just for fun....

A couple of months ago SD took of photo of me and used it as a reference for an art project she did in school. She did a really nice job on it; it was on display in the glass case when we went to her school sports banquet in December. Apparently she just got it back, and brought it home and put it on the wall in her room.

BM walked into her room and saw it and said "oh she's pretty, who is that?" (assuming it was one of her friends) "it's northernsiren" SD replied.

It keeps getting better and better!

Last month we figured out that my SS's mother's attorney had withdrawn from her case. Wonder why....could be because she LIES and doesn't know how to pay a bill! Well we just got notice that she has a new attorney. His specialty? DUI and Domestic Violence! This should be interesting when we go to court! Oh, and of course he wants a continuence when she waited an entire month to find a freaking attorney! I will keep you posted!
