Saturday Alone

soontobeastep's picture

Today I am at home while my soon to be husband is attending a sporting event for his daughter. I have not been invited to attend. In fact I have been told (by the BM) not to attend because it would make the daughter feel uncomfortable and may cause her not to do well. I don't want to be accused of being the reason she doesn't do well, so I stay home.

Several months before the season started my soon to be step daughter would talk about wanting me to attend but over time that has changed. The first time the biological mom called me and said it was "too soon" for me to attend.

Surprise surprise

Once again fiancee had to pick up FSS at someone else's house for his weekend visitation because BM had to go out of town for 4 days for a concert...boy, it must be nice to go out of town all the time and leave her child with others so they can take on her responsibilitie for days every weekend...

I found this website a couple of days ago and have been reading all the comments and stories. I have to admit, I'm very concerned if I am handling my situation with my boyfriend (whom I’ll refer to as DH as not to confuse anyone) of two plus years the right way for everyone (me included) and could really use some guidance...

I am sooooooooo Proud of myself

Hi all, how are you? Alright, lets begin by considering something. A little definition that can change a lot of lives. It called a "parent". That's right, what is a parent? Well,Webster says" 1 a: one that begets or brings forth offspring b: a person who brings up and cares for another. So what does beget mean well, according ot Webster 1 : to procreate as the father : sire 2 : to produce especially as an effect or outgrowth. So, according to these definitions, if you bring up or care for another, you are a parent.

Let The Music Feed Your Soul

no validation's picture

There is so much feeling in music. It can feed your soul if you let it. You hear a song and it takes you back to a time, usually associated with the feelings you were experiencing at that time. Sometimes music can stir in you the feelings you WANT to experience. Let me explain what I mean. There was a time in my life that I wanted to put together certain parts of certain movies to explain how I wanted to feel with that someone special. Think back to the first time you saw the movie Set It Off.

Do you ever think of the circumstances as to how SK was conceived?

Well, there's the universal way, but don't you ever think "WTF was he thinking?!?!?" If they weren't marrried...did she say she was on the pill, was it in the heat of the moment, was it a "I miss you f*ck," etc....

In my case, it was an "I miss you f*ck" that knocked BM up. What the hell was DH thinking back then..UGH! This could of all been prevented...then I go into "what-if" mode...if SD wasn't born, her and my now DH wouldn't of fought (he left because they argued too much), and maybe SD would of ended up being born anyways...digressing.

No Light at the end of a long tunnel

SD16 returned to BM in mid January and so far the crisis phone calls are not as frequent. SD16 was home about 3 days and BM called saying she was out of control and had taken off to her boyfriend's apt. He is 20 and a HS dropout. Two weeks ago SD16 and BM had another blowup and she moved into his apt. BM took away SD's car and computer( it's about time to begin acting as a parent!)DH tried calling her but she wouldn't answer so he turned off her cell phone which we have been paying for.
