that's all I want. Both my SS play baseball. For the last 4 years our lives from April through mid July revolve around it no less than 5 nights a week. That is 5 nights of BM kids. Anyway this year is only 4 nights BUT we are exposed to BM & her BFF the manimal who isn't very nice to us & is loud & obnoxious. I have always gone to all the kids events rain or shine all these years but this year I have cut back on going BS will be 3 & I spend the games chasing him all over the place for 2 1/2 hours after working all day & commuting an 1 1/2.

My H and I just found out that the BM is getting married to some guy she met 4 months ago that she met on line. This guy lives 400 miles away from BM and SK. BM told my H that's she is moving 400 miles away with the kids.

How is this possible. BM lied to the SK and didn't tell them that they won't see there father as much. But the SK want to move. BM lied to them and told them that their BF won't let them move and that they have to choice whom they want to live with.

Why is this happening. BM just met this guy the SK has only met him three times.

DH finally broke his silence after 10 days & wanted to discuss my words to SD20 when I told her its rather awkward that she was here at our home...she goes why? I go cuz your so disrespectful. You would of thought I shot her dead. I am dealing with a family that is totally passive agressive, expect everyone to bow at their feet & beyond stubborn.

I haven't been on here in a while, ALOT has been going on. It started last week when BF and BM were fighting over something irrelevant.. and I get brought up of course. I think it was Wednesday night around 11:30, I was in bed and I get a text that says something about her coming up tomorrow, that I need to get ready for a visit. I ignored it like usual. He was in bed at his house and I wasn't going to call because I knew he had to get up early.

Got a letter today from the attorney stating that there has been a request to set up a meeting between BF and BM along with both of their attorney's ALONG WITH THE 2 KIDS?!!!

Oh my, and I thought we were doing so good. I'm just in need of a good vent about this so I don't feel such a need to holler at him.

So my bf got upset because im online talking to "strangers" about our problems and says they are not credible. Okay i would talk to the ah but I get the whole "im a perfect parent, im perfect at everything, and you are crazy" really!!? Personally if he thinks he is so damn perfect hes crazy. Where else am I to go? These are real people on here with real problems with stepparenting, etc.

My professor was right. I have learned from "Stepmom". I found myself envious of Susan Sarandon and Julia Roberts. I know it is just a movie and probably unlikely, but I also know, having read Steptalk blogs etc, that it IS possible for BM and I to be civil and not vicious.

Don't get me wrong, around the children (as far as I know), we are civil and don't bad mouth each other. In our own worlds (like I am doing here), we spew venomous snotty comments about each other.

:? SO and I are planning on moving in together between now and October sometime. I'm just worried. I know I shouldn't be thinking about these things and be happy that we are thinking about taking that step, but I'm worried. I'm worried because SO has already done all this before. I haven't. I haven't been in a relationship that is THIS serious. I've never lived with a guy before. I'm sad because all my firsts will be with someone who has already had them all. I feel like I'm competing with HER. Am I jealous of her? Do I think they still love each other? No to both. I know he loves me.

So, i wonder why we have a few new posters who have nothing to post except something along the lines of:

"it's all about the kids and you should be ashamed of yourself if you don't adore skids and be willing to take a bullet for them"..
