I never smile at the misfortunes of others, but in this case, I'll make an exception. For years, evil BM did everything to make life as a stepmom difficult for me. Went out of her way to make sure the kids preferred her, spoiling them, her entire life revolving around their every need, and expecting the same of me, while at the same time denigrating me in their minds as a nobody (she once referred to me as a "third party). Tried to undermine my wedding. Well. She finally got over her years of post-divorce man-hating and began dating a couple years ago. Met a guy and has married him. He has 3 of the most useless children imaginable, with a side order of evil ex-wife. Being new at this, my 2 SDs tell me she is having difficulty with the role of step mom. I only hope she gets half the crap heaped on her that she heaped on me. Yes, I know. It is a pretty uncharitable thing to feel, and I will let go of it at some point. But for now, I'm just praying she comes to me for advice soon. Smile

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! I LOVE IT!!
I wish that had happended to the girls BM but she married a 43 year old man who had never been married before and had no kids. (She's only 30)

I guess she already screwed everyone her own age and had to start looking at the older crowd. I give them a year. If he's made it this far in his life not married I'm sure he's not going to out up with BM's and the skids crap to long.

I've wished for this for so long for my BM. She actually dated a guy for about 3 yrs with teenage girls. She and the guy were talking of getting married and I was soooooo excited figuring she'd be so busy with her life that she would leave us the hell alone. BF's teenaged BDs HATED the sight of her and gave her such a hard time. One incident led to a pushing and shoving match between BM & BF. I think BF eventually saw that this was headed nowhere fast and got out of the situation. The strange thing is that while she was still living with BF #1 she had already found and began dating BF #2. I'm still not sure what part of this did she find acceptable behavior to display for her 13 y.o daughter and 11 y.o son (12 & 10 at the time)? DH chewed her out about having the kids exposed to different guys to which she doesn't see as a problem. Why try? An ant has more reasoning skills than BM.

I'm sure you love being the fly on the wall now.
