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
are you ok?
are you ok?
no, not really..just fed up
no, not really..just fed up
hurt and depressed with this whole situation with SS19..just plain disgusted. just feel like I am at that breaking point to just let off on him..and in over 6years I have remained fair and cailm, I am at my breaking point!

I am sorry. Can you get away
I am sorry. Can you get away for a few days at a friends house or family. Just to clear your head and relax.
Also the military is a great choice for a 19 year old. Steady pay check..if he is good looking girls...housing paid for...medical...and out of your hair.

You ARE so right
You ARE so right Mustang1...heaven forbid you even remind them they can wipe their own as* without being accused of you got it in for them, and your absolutley right again...being nice and caring and warm just makes you a doormatt,and Lauren, I wish I did have a place for a break
But unfortunately I dont right now. Its ok..ill be cailm sooner or later..i'm pretty passive
Obviously too much.Just today was that day I had not had to cross in some time, but when they get my head spining they really go for broke !
Mustang indeed nailed it. DH
Mustang indeed nailed it. DH used to always walk on egg shells about not hurting SD's feelings but didn't give a rat's ass about her hurting mine. Who in the hell is she supposed to be?
SD's (27) now getting a rude awakening and having problems with her fiance. The wedding has been cancelled. I guess dear old fiance ain't going to kiss her ass like daddy. Boo hoo! :sick:
I have kept myself in-control
I have kept myself in-control over and over again..always the good guy, the giver..and I feel like a carcus and SS19 is a vaulture at his best. I am tired of the manipulation and the " Poor me" addittude he gives to ANYONE who will hear it. BF coddled SS19 because other kids went sour because of BM control issues. I am not looking to play mommy here..I just want the respect part rather you like me or not, If I refuse to cater to my own son and threw him out on the streets because of his erogent and baligerent mouth towards me...why does SS19 feel he is the right to treat me as he pleases? Pisses me off :/ What gets me is the fact HE IS the issue..but he of course tell BF different...that its me. Well helllllo SS19...I gave this ALOT of thought and you are about to meet a different side, and you want to talk smack...my lord I think I will now attempt to live up to it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
