What to do/think???

pamelamac's picture

Well, this is my first time here - hoping that getting some of my angry feelings out will help - as well as some good feedback to help me deal with and move on. A year ago I get a call from an old "kinda" boyfriend from high school (25 years ago). He had separated from his wife of 23 years - and thought he would "look me up" since he had heard that I had gotten divorced (again).

Self-Control

We attended my boyfriend's family funeral yesterday and all went relatively well. The exwife said hello and I tried to give the daughter a kiss and she turned her cheek. She never uttered a word. Then they came back towards her dad and she did give him a kiss on the cheek but never spoke to him and went to the other side of the room. As awkward as it was, at least the rest of the family (with the exception of one niece who has always snubbed me) were all very happy that we were there. We did forego the reception after the services and we went home.

This is the last resort

As I sit here to write this my stomach is in knots. I feel so unbelievably out of my depth, so sick to my stomach.

DH and I are nearing what I think is the end of the road. We have discussed separating - and as a last resort (I know we should have gone earlier) we are going to counselling. Of course DH thinks I am the one with issues about his ex. Those of you who know my story know it's untenable - as Anne and BIOMOM have both correctly stated.

Oh the joy that is my SD!

SD truly is a joy. I am so blessed to have her in my life and every time BM is acting up, I remind myself that if it weren't for her, I wouldn't have this lovely girl as my SD, or as my daughters' doting big sister. I feel terrible for those stepparents out there who not only deal with a vindictive BM, but disrespectful skids who blame them for all that is wrong in the world. I am so fortunate to love and be loved by her. I can't get over what a wonderful little girl she is.

So today i was logged onto my b/fs yahoo messenger by accident and realized that his ex has beed emailing him all day. I have no idea what they're talking about because i cant get into his email. I just saw the message that pops up evertytime he gets an email. I asked him about and he said they're just talking about the girls and her broken rib...

...baby GIRL! (You thought I was going to say boy, didn't you? Tee hee!)

I teased my fiance about it, saying "well, you thought we were done with this one, but now we've gotta try once more for a boy!" He just gave me the "whatever you want, dear" look. Good answer!
