He said if he had to choose....it would be me hands down!!!
This set me off just before I left for work this morning....
The 30 yr old SD takes another stab at excluding me again!
She sent several e-mail with pictures- one of Grand-son on a toy motorbike, with the caption below....(youngest SD/BF and hubby/me all ride motorcycles.)
""OK - so Uncle Xxxxx, Auntie Xxxxx & Grandad aren't the only only riding these days...check out Xxxxxx's bike - and the tricks to boot
Does jealousy makes SD run Luke warm and Cold? Or is it Me?
She runs luke warm & cold with me! Since they were older when I came into the picture, I have always kind-of left the ball in both SD's courts as far as what kind of relationship they were comfortable having with me. I don't throw myself at them...lets go here..let's do this..call them to chat..push a relationship..or anything but I have made many, many gestures towards them over the last 5 years or so....!
They like him!
They Like him....They really Like him!!! My bio-kids..his SK's gave him a card for Father's Day and instead of just signing it like they usually do...the 13yr old wrote a wonderful note to him. "You have been my Dad since 2001. You drive me here & there and do so many more things for me more than I can say. Hope you have a great Fathers Day!!" She gave a big hug & Happy Father's Day earlier too!! She was always the one to keep him at arms length. He asked me later if I put her up to it.... Swear to God she did it on her own!!!

Repeating mistakes..do you worry?
Do you ever worry that your spouse is repeating some of the same mistakes he made during his first marriage?
I've heard lots of stories over the last 5 years about his first marriage, from him, his friends, his family, etc. And of course the stories always had a spin favourable to him and negative to his X. The family, who didn't live under the same roof... has been fed his spin over the years also.
There are times, I believe he played more of a role in the dimise of his marriage than he would like people, including his family to believe.

This is interesting..
So you want to be a stepmother?
Excerpted from Games Divorced People Play, by Dr. Melvyn A. Berke and Joanne B. Grant.
"Surveys and research suggest the following:
"If the new parent is a stepmother, the probability of the marriage surviving and marital happiness are reduced.
"The role of the stepmother is considerably more difficult than of the stepfather.
"Stepmothers are less likely than stepfathers to achieve close ties with their stepchildren.

It ain't no Brady Bunch.....is it?!!
I'm told once again. That's just the way she is..that's why she has no friends. Don't take it personally!
The 30 yr old called tonight "Is my Dad there?" No, he's not. He's at work. "OK I'll call him there." OK ""Bye" I never asked how she was, or how the new baby is. I'm so tired of trying. And of course she had nothing to say to me as usual.
So without anyone (me) trying anymore...
I don't want this to turn into open hostility. I'm told by everyone, father included, that she is soo much like her mother....(who is openly nasty, spiteful, manipulative, evil)
