I love my dog more than these kids. If I even love the kids at all.

I KNOW I would love kids if they were my own. These kids are not mine. And I hate being around them. Something tells me SO told them that too... they seem a little scared of me lately. They whisper when I'm home. It's a little unnerving..... Now I'm scared to say anything to them in case I scare them more!! God knows I'm probably the reason they are both wetting the bed!!!

If I moved out tomorrow, I'd never have to deal with kids again!!! (other than my neices and nephews which is usually on my terms) When the skids are here that's all I can think about!! That and I'd obviously take all my stuff and furniture with me so they can see just how much nothing they'd have without me!!! SO wouldn't be able to afford the mortgage AND all the bills so either they'd move into a crap house so they could have internet and TV or they'd live here with no internet and TV!! That brings a smile to my face. Those 2 boys without TV?!?!?!?? For shame!!! What would they do with every waking hour of their day?!?!? Oh yeah, play video games!! I guess one TV and one game console are his.

On the other hand, I think of how much I could like this house if only I lived alone!! No kids coming every second weekend and taking up the second upstairs bedroom for their crap which has the door closed 12 days in two weeks just waiting for their return.... Sigh... it really would make a nice office.... I wouldn't need the cleaning lady that comes in just to clean their fingerprints off the fridge... pee off the bathroom floor and walls.....

I wish it was them that were invisible instead of how I felt every time they are here.

10 more years. Only 10 more years.

The kids are scared of you and you can't stand them?I couldn't do that for 10 years.I would go.....your SO will be ok, no TV is a good thing.YOU are not responsible for his financial situation.This is not good for yourself but also not for those boysies.I have two, 9 and 13, and they are a challenge though being good kids.
If you feels so resentful of them and don't want to work on that, please leave.You don't have to love them or even like them, but if you scare them so much that they wee their beds that is not ok.

I must have explained wrong. They wet their beds. I doubt I am the cause... the older one was already doing it when SO and I met... I was just saying I think they're scared of me. Was more of an exaggerated example.

I love my cat more. She's like my bio kid, since I have no other. Even when the cat is meowing repeatedly and for no apparent reason I still love her. Skid, not so much. I wish I could love SD more, but I'm just totally lacking that attachment. My acting skills have gotten pretty good though }:)
