Dear Valued Users,
It's with a heavy heart that we announce the permanent closure of StepTalk.org on August 31st, 2025.
This decision wasn't an easy one. For over twenty years, StepTalk has been a source of support for stepparents around the world! However, over the years, the costs associated with maintaining and upgrading the site to remain secure, meet current standards and maintain availability have become unsustainable.
We are incredibly grateful for your support, contributions and the community you've helped us build. Your engagement has made StepTalk.org a special place and we cherish the memories and connections made here.
We would especially like to thank Aniki for volunteering to be a moderator and for caring so much.
Thank you for being a part of our journey and we wish you all the best.
Sincerely,
Dawn and The StepTalk Team

You might find she doesn't do
You might find she doesn't do the same thing with BM that she did with you and DH. I'm betting she will thrilled for her mother, and very engaged in all wedding planning.
Yeah, she will probably be
Yeah, she will probably be euphoric. LOL
Her mom is a bigger Attention Vacuum than she is, so she usually bends to her will. So you're probably right!
Watch her father (who tried to hold his family together) not get the same respect when he re-marries someday. :P
With my luck, she'll be angry about the impending marriage but only lash out about it when she's home with us. LOL
You're killin' me tog... *ROFL*
Exactly, stepdads are almost
Exactly, stepdads are almost always embraced by the SDs, especially, because they see them as taking care of their mommy. Seriously, while, honestly, I hate to burst your bubble, enjoy it while you can because SD will start liking him--they just do.
Any little victory is a win
Any little victory is a win for you so Congrats
You at least have BM
You at least have BM distracted for a while. I take that as a win for you!
Can you send some this way?
Toxic Troll needs some sparkle d!ck to distract her. And take away our alimony obligation.
Okay, so why I'm glad you've
Okay, so why I'm glad you've gotten some momentary bliss off of this, don't get too blissful because SDs usually end up very quickly embracing their stepdads because they see them as a man who is taking care of their mama. And, face it, women get along better with men. If you haven't read Stepmonster, you need to. Now, while your SD will probably really like her stepdad, she will always still dream of her mom and her dad back together, which is why you will still be the target of hatefulness. You stood and, frankly, still stand in the way of her parents get back together. In her mind, they are still together and will be physically, too, some day. ;-) Sucks, huh?
Oh, and I totally agree that your SD needs some d!ck to distract her from you and her dad. Works wonders, well, that is until the guy breaks up with her because she's a biotch.
Okay, so back to the celebration. Enjoy it while it lasts!!!!! :-D
I would get her
A nice wedding present. Give her something to think about
We wish... it would mean
We wish... it would mean stopping spousal support. Unfortunately she will not give up hefty alimony and won’t marry until alimony is over but also no one wants her. She is too crazy and mean. Oh lucky you
BM is on her 6th marriage, so
BM is on her 6th marriage, so there really is someone for everybody!
But, yeah, if he's paying alimony, she won't re-marry until that expires.
