Hello All! This is my first entry although I have been reading the site for months and occasionally chiming in under anonymous. I would like you all to know how helpful it has been for me to be able to read everything you have all shared. It's nice to know we aren't alone in what we are going through.
I am new to this site, I am looking for some guidence. I am a new Step Mother of 2 and do not have any children of my own. My Step Daughters are 14 and 17. We don't have much contact with the oldest anymore, but the youngest we still get every other weekend. Well, I just overheard a conversation that she was having with her BM over the weekend that hurt me. She was crying on the phone with her and said that she is more important than me and that her dad is only worried about me and not her. This couldn't be further from the truth!!!!
grow up. STBH's mother had his cell phone and EW called it and she answered it. Do you know that EW proceeded to curse her out. Called her bitches and that she was stupid and the only reason he is with you is because i didn't want him. So MIL hung up the phone. EW called back and MIL told her who she was. If she ain't about the stupidest woman i know. She did this because she thought that it was me answering the phone. I asked STBH what he was going to do about it. He was like my mother should have cursed her out. I was like no you need to handle that.
How do you handle a step daughter that lies right to your face when you watched the whole scenario and then you question her on it and she says oh I didn't do that, and she lies to her dad and I have to stay out of it. I am not allowed to discipline which she needs desperatly. her dad states that everyone lies, well I disagree, sure people tell little white lies but that doesn't hurt anyone, but step daughter lies and it affects a lot of people around her and she doesn't have a care in the world. it has practically distroyed boyfrioend and my relationship, we are hangiung in there.
Well, today was the day that we went get the results of the mri and find out more regarding her surgery. She will be having a lumpectomy. Doctor gave her a choice. The worrysome thing is that the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes next to the aorta. I didn't even know that there were lymph nodes there. What that means is that she will have to have chemo.
First of all - Hooray! Everything went so well! Ok, now I'll let you know what happened.
So my attorney was there to meet me bright and early in the morning. BF said that every time he has gone to court with BM, they have sat in the 'pews' and waited through everyone else's cases until theirs was finally heard. Today, we were the first people in there - and the only people in there at the time. I was relieved that no one was in there to listen to her air her dirty laundry.
Now that we're going for full custody BM is swearing that she's living in a homeless Shelter and not with her ex. That doesn't make sense, why would she ask to have her 8 week summer visitation with SS if she's in a homeless shelter with her other 3 kids and why would she think that we'd allow SS to live in a homeless shelter for 2 months?
Now she's also stating that she's going to move out of state again to her cousins. She is so unstable that we can't figure out what she's thinking.
It's been a while since I have posted here, just have been very busy with Little League and other things at work, haven't had the time or inclination to put thoughts down until today, but that doesn't mean things are peachy, just the opposite of course, some of the things that have happened recently:
Do any of you ladies have local step parent step mom or second wives groups locally where women in situations like ours can meet to talk in real life? If so, are there any resources you can advise for me to look into for such a group?
I could really use a support system in town as I know no one here but my STBH and his ninety y/o landlady. Oh and the nutcase STBX.
he never came to any meetings before why now!! I have an IEP meeting this morning concerning holding 6 yr old bs back in kindergarten. I am so unsure of what to do and have been told that I can request he be tested late in the summer to see where he is then decide what grade to put him in 1st or kindergarten.
