My stepkids make my skin crawl

I am in a serious relationship with a great man. We live together. We have several kids about the same age. He is great with my kids. The only problem is, I can't stand his kids. They are immature, hyper, annoying. Everything they do drives me nuts. I have a hard time imagining them in my home for several more years. I don't feel comfortable when they're around. I know it's messed up...if I knew someone I was in a relationship with felt that way about my kids, I'd be out of there. I don't know what to do. I'm considering seeing a counselor (by myself) about it.

He's a great dad. He doesn't see a problem with their behavior because it's just their nature.

Run. I have been with my wife's 3 kids for 3 years now. It's awful and doesn't get better. I was naïve about marrying a women with kids. I regret every minute. Act before you make the mistakes I did.

You should tell him how you feel and allow him to decide if he wants to continue the relationship or not.
