blah. That is my exact feeling today. Just freakin blah.
I tried to be nice this morning but everyone in my house had an attitude from hell. So I decided to stop trying to be nice. My day is off to a terrific start. Over the stupidest crap imaginable. Whatever.
SD won't be coming over for her EOW. BM has completely brainwashed her. She won't even speak to DH. He told her he loved her on the phone, she said "whatever, bye". This is just a kid, not even a teen w/an attitude.
What tax filing status do you file? This is our first year filing Married ______. BM in our case, lied about her income (she's self employed) - but is currently being charged with a felony (so we think she might not try to pull anything regarding child support right now)... Also, we just got married and we're having a child of our own - so I'm not sure how she's taking that...if it's the same as before, she must be pissed.
So, what tax filing status do you file and why?
As time passes, does it get easier---with DH, Skid(s), the BM, DH's family, etc?
My DH was married to the BM for only 6 years when they separated/divorced. DH & I have been married for 3 years come this March. Thus DH & I have been married (known each other longer) for half of the time that DH & BM were married. I wonder if things will get better once DH & I go past that 6 year mark of his last marriage.
Good morning ladies (and the occasional male)
Well, today is a new day, and I'm feeling alot better even though this morning held it's fair share of drama. BM is threating to take visitation from us again, because she tried to start the drama again and he told her to f*ck off again.
Now he is in a place where he doesnt even want to fight it. Says maybe it's for the best so she won't grow up in the middle of all of this.
There's no talking to him when he's like this either, I just have to ride it out.
(I did make an effort to reach out to a few other frustrated folks before I started my rant again. Showing support for others is important - it can definitely be a hard, lonely road for we step parents. I also want to warn readers that some content in this passage is PG-13, so skip this message, if you have delicate sensibilities.)
Alright guys.... I cried and guess what? I'm still alive. No one saw me, so that's good. (lol)
Anyways, I just wanted to say that now that I have completely gone off the deep end in here, I feel like I can't leave. You all have seen my ass so to speak, how could I leave?
I haven't been here long but I'm reading stuff that indicates drama between posters. Since I don't know you people too well I can't make sense of it.
I mean, when I 1st found this, I tried to read all the posts of one or 2 of you who I saw posting pretty often, but got a little tired.
I suppose that if I end up sticking around for a while, I'll be able to differentiate between most of you but so far, I'm only certain that Dawn started this site and she is pretty fair minded.
i'm having a really really bad, rejected, sad, self pitying day today,
and i feel like no one on here even responds to my posts anymore.
thanks to those who have but i think im done... i just dont have anything left in me to keep up with anything but my kids.
bye
My DH has a SS (16) and SD (12)and he has visitation EOW. The SS doesn't seem to want to come over to our house as his friends live all away across town and it seems like it is a hugh inconvience to come and visit his dad. When should you give the Skids a choice on when they visit.
I wish I could write a letter to BM. I wish we could find that common ground. I wish I could dig deep in myself and not get so angry when she pulls the dramatics she does. I will never send it but here goes....
Dear BM,
