will it ever get better? why do i stay? i am always alone, i feel like i am an unwanted guest at my own home. my step son came to me last night and asked to speak to me. he was very polite about which is highly unusual considering i dont think i have heard him be polite to me in at least a year. he is always yelling at me and has more additude than i can handle. any way he cae to me and asked politely if he could talk to me. wow i thought what is this about? well he stayed polite the entire talk, and spoke very seriously, BUT he came to talk about and explain that he HATES me!!!
