Hello

Hello, this is my first time on this (or any) blog. I have been reading your entries and realized that there are other people with similar issues as I have. I will have to learn the codes - what is DH: Dear Husband?

The dreaded joint birthday party

Nymh's picture

I'm sure most of you all have been through this one, but it's a new one to me. Having read a lot of trials and tribulations about the joint birthday party ordeal, I pretty much know what we're in for. I'm not going, of course, due to the restraining order. I know that BF isn't just "caving" because he feels guilty - he's perfectly capable of not going as he has illustrated the entire time we've been together and even before that. So I'm not jealous or insecure (and far from disappointed) that he's made the decision to go.

Jealous of the step-kids - and don't know what to do

I have been married 3 years to my husband. He has 2 daughters 11 and 7 that stay with us every single Saturday into Sunday. It's hard to never ever have any weekend time with him. The most I get is Sunday afternoon. He calls them every single night, even when we are out with friends or at a concert - he'll go out of the room and call them. He just worships them. They are good girls, not sassy or rude or mean. I just don't understand why I have such resentment for them. I don't want to be with them, I don't want to get close to them. I don't know why I feel this way and I hate it.

so much to say, so little time

I think I've needed a forum like this for a while. I'm completely overwhelmed with being a sm. It's been 2 years and I keep waiting for it to get easier and it's not. My kids aren't faultless but I'm exhausted from constantly fighting with, negotiating with and hearing sass back from 2 kids who are not mine. One sk is manipulative, dishonest and rude to everyone she encounters. The other is argumentative, disrespectful and jelous that I'm in the picture at all. BD wants to make them happy for the 2 weeks a month they are with us but I'm bone tired from dealing with it all.

Dentist & Foot Update

Okay … Tuesday night BM called and left a message for DH, “I need to talk to you about SS’ dentist appointment tomorrow.” I laughed. Told DH after all this she needs you to take SS to the DDS. Sure enough … she had a work conflict and said, “I can either have BF take him or you can.” Of course DH said he’d take SS to the DDS.

Adult Stepchildren I am Tired Tired Tired

I have been married to a man with 5 children for almost 18 years. I have been nice, courteous, generous, outgoing, and generally a pleasant non-demanding person with these kids. I do not in any way attempt to interfere with their relationship with their father. I am sure I made some mistakes. But, there has never been a major disagreement, etc. For most of these years we hosted holiday dinners and many family celebrations at our home. We loaned money, financed businesses, helped grandchildren with school tuition, etc.
