I had all my resolve up to talk to him tonight. I've been waiting for him to come home. He's in construction and gone all week, but coming home early b/c of holiday on Fri. I finally get ahold of him on his cell phone only to find out he and his buddies have been drinking on the car ride home for 3 hours and he's drunk! So much for the talk I wanted to have tonight. I am just so frustrated right now, I want to scream!!!! I just had to get this off my chest before it explodes.

Trying to stay calm...

I've finally decided to talk to BF and tell him that I am going to emotionally distance myself from his children AND if he can't stand up to BM and all of her bs, as well as his manipulative child (SD16), I am leaving. I need to have a voice in this house, too. He is coming home tonight from being on the road for three days and we are going to talk!!! I'm tired of sitting around here feeling a mess all the time b/c I'm not supposed to have any input on anything in his opinion. He's going to grow a set of you know what and take charge of his children and his ex or we are done.

Introduction

Fed Up And Wiped Out's picture

Hello, I'm new here and I just wanted to say that I'm so happy to have found other people who are going through the same thing that I am! I've been with my BF for 3 1/2 years now. I have never been married and have no children of my own. We've lived together for three years. He has a son, 9 and a daughter, recently 16. They are here EOW. Daughter is the spawn of satan and son is a zombie who does everything she says. They use visitation as a weapon against their father, who will not force them to come if they don't want to.

Does your H call his kids when they are with BM?

My H calls his son. I know and understand why he calls him. Now very rarely when he calls him is ss talkative and friendly. It is usually yeah Dad gotta go Dad fine Dad bye Dad and all the while BM in the back ground telling ss to tell your daddy bye or you are burning up my minutes.

Backing down yet again, help!!!! 2 problems

Skids are suppose to go to their BM the month of July. BM is not picking them up til Friday. I told DH that was crap and she needed to pick them up on the 1st like she is suppose to. DH plays that role of I don't want them over at her house more than they have to be so Friday was OK with me. But he didn't OK it with me since I would be the one stuck with skids while he's at work. Of course I told him WHATEVER!! Skids have been giving me sh*t all day today and I've had it. Now I want to tell DH to tell their BM to come and get them. SHOULD I SEND SKIDS TO THEIR MOM?????

Fork in the road

Well folks, it's been a busy month & I haven't written or commented in a while, but today I just needed to log on & spill my guts. If I don't I think I'm going to explode.

I'm now at a point where I need to decide whether to stay or go, and the worst part is we've just sold our house & are buying a new one. The timing couldn't be WORSE.

Where do I start??

Ok...Im new here. here is my background. I met my DH almost 5 years ago-we married about 2 and a half yrs ago. We were both in the first stages of divorce when we met. At that time, i was told how well he got along with his ex which may have been the case until she found out I was in the picture. He moved in with me a few months later. He adopted SS17 when he was 6 after marrying BM (his BF was a deadbeat). SS17 came to live in my home about 7 months after I met DH due to the fact that BM could not handle him and he had flunked the 7th grade and was going to have to repeat.
