Or rather, maybe it should be worded "Need I mention...". All of our respected bio moms seem to share a lot of similarities, and exhibit a lot of the same behaviors. I don't want to jump in and say that mine takes the cake, but I'm sure you'll agree when I say she's pretty far gone. Story time!
So, I started dating bf many moons ago. At that time she regarded me less like a threat and more like an annoyance. She didn't bother herself wasting too much time on me, I guess she felt that I could never "make it" with her ex.
I'm new to this website, and I like everyone have a lot to talk about. Hopefully I'll be able to vent things here without someone who I really don't want to read it stumbling across it and making my life that much more difficult.
Okay so maybe I should write a book!!!! If this wasn’t my life I would SWEAR that I was making it up! So Mom B sent a letter in the mail today to my husband talking about how he needs to reimburse her boyfriend for the money that he spent on daughter’s soccer clothes.
Im so glad I found this site, Ive been needing something like this. Ive dealt with my Husbands ex-wife for far too long. This is absolutely, the hardest thing i have ever done in my life. This is my first time being a Step-Parent, and dealing with an Ex. Im also an Ex-Wife, but I get along great with my ex husbands wife, she is awesome, and she loves my kids. I got really lucky in that aspect. I also respect her, for what she does. Thats something I dont get from my husbands ex. She doesnt see me as a good person or a great step mom, she sees me as an enemy. Now I see her as the same.
Hi All - It has been a long time since I took time to write, but nothing was going on for a while and life has been pretty content because my boyfriend's daughter has not returned. The latest development concerns her. My boyfriend moved his life from a city where he loved living to the school district where his exwife wanted his daughter to attend this better school district and she couldn't afford to sell her house and move to the school district. That was three years ago - it wasn't what he wanted, but he did it "for his daughter".
I'm needing to vent in a big way. My husband, who I adore, is a father to a highly ill mannered child. My ss is 12, and has primarily lived with biomom most of his life. He did come to live with us last year.
Biomom has always been unstable, highly confrontational, inconsistent, unreliable, untrustworthy, and always, always uses people including her children.
I need to vent about grocery shopping with my DH. I notice more and more every time we go that he's a little obsessed with getting things that SS would like. And I feel like he talks down to me, almost saying I'm not thinking of SS enough when planning meals. I've pointed this out to him and he doesn't see it. It makes me nuts.
If I'd see my husband put the kind of OOMMPH into us as he does into that little boy, it would be different.
A little advice... 4 year old boys are not ready for tee ball! I don't think some of their mothers are, either.
SS looks adorable in his too-long t-shirt and it's hilarious to see 10 little kids in batting helmets (think Rick Moranis in "Space Balls"). Saturday was the third week of tee ball for my SS and he's a terror on the field. He's OK when his team is up to bat. The kid's got a great swing and he's so fast getting around the bases. His daddy and I were just plain embarrassed Saturday, though, by his antics in the outfield.
I’m wondering if this is the “calm before the storm”…I have to say that LIFE has been so very WONDERFUL and I’m afraid to get too comfortable in it…that is a part of me but the other part of me…the part that wants to win says… WHY BE AFRAID?!
No problems today for the relative party. Everything went off without a hitch. Stepson had a good time with his cousins and liked all of his gifts.
Tomorrow stepson and I will go shopping so he can spend some of his birthday money before school starts back up. He will have to put a small portion of his birthday money in his savings account but he is ok with that.
It's been a long weekend of parties, though! I'm tired!
