I have a 3 yr old stepson, been in his life since he was a six months old.
I put my heart and soul into being a family, including my stepson in everything, and being there every moment I could. This was met with harsh abuse from his biological mother. She took every opportunity to sabotage plans, prevent him from seeing my family, and verbally harassing me online or bashing me to the father. It has been an uproad battle to say the least.
The father and I had our own baby a year ago. When my son was six months I found out he had been cheating on me with his ex, for over a year and a half. Although he claims they didn't have sex, the details he shared are enough.
I've decided to stay, mainly as I truly want my child to have unseparated parents, so we are working on our relationship.
The thing is, I can't stand my stepson anymore. I know he is innocent in all this, but when I see him I get severely depressed. Being around him triggers the hurt. I look after him during our days (we have 50%), and it feels unbearable to be near him. I have thoughts of him out of the picture, and hopes she will take the father to court for full custody. I want him out of my life because then the ex too is out of the picture. I hate when he comes over. I wish I could shake these feelings, but our relationship is now severely crippled from this affair.
I don't know what to do. It's not fair to him I feel this way.
