What is so freaking great about BM

officallyinsane's picture

What I want to know is why all these crappy BM's get every freaking thing handed to them. I don't get it. DH fell for her and had two kids with her. Worshiped her like she was God's gift to the world. Meanwhile she treated him like garbage and her children like accessories. If you ever have the misfortune of meeting her you would understand. She is rude, lazy
Sneaky and a complete bitch to everyone. She looks like a bloated sunburned acne ridden beast. But yet she always has some guy tripping over himself to be with her.

I think I'm attractive, sweet, funny and loyal but I'm always getting the short end of the stick. DH met BM in high school. Crushed on her until he met her again at a bar in college where she worked and that was all she wrote. I crushed on DH at work from afar for months before he even gave me the time of day. Then once we were serious he broke it off because he didn't want to burden me with having to share in the pain of his past mistakes. I had to jump through hoops to prove my love and willingness to ride this ride with him.

MIL was suppose to sell us her car so we could have more room with the new baby. She ended up giving it to BM for free.
I don't get BM's spell. She is a horrible nasty person ugly through and through. I don't see what DH ever saw in her. I just have to vent this out. I'm tired of it. I work hard while DH, MIL and the government just shovel BM free money by the bucket. She has a way of getting whatever the hell she wants on someone else's dime. I go above and beyond the stepmom call of duty for my stepkids. while BM does the bare minimum of being a mom. Yet rakes in all the benefits.

I'm wondering if karma got our addresses mixed up or something.

I thought we were supposed to uplift one another here. I didn't chase after him like a puppy dog. I saw what i wanted and i went after it. I showed him i was willing to stand by him because i love him. I didn't beg him to stay with me. I showed him what he would be missing by not opening his heart to me. I have high self esteem and place alot of value in myself. I don't know if you meant it that way. But i felt that was a rude comment to make to someone just venting their feelings.

Your MIL is a moron! Your description of your husband makes me feel that he has low self esteem not you. There are nasty people in this world who get what they want all the time, but her luck will run out...it always does.

You're probably right. She probably had a good sob story. She is an excellent liar. Well when her good luck runs out i will be right there with a bucket lol.

Some people are very gifted in the art of manipulation. I think some of these bms had a long time to practice it on men who always gave in. My husband is a really nice guy. Couple that with low self esteem and an extreme aversion to conflict and, yeah he was a great "mark" for one of these assholes. I would hate myself forever if I took advantage of him the way bm did. It's not that she has special charms that make everyone around her just give and give....It's that they fear her instability. MIL and DH have both seen how she uses the kids as pawns and they tried to stay on her good side to protect the kids from having to hear her go on her tirades about all of them. I think it's a terrible tactic but they did it for a long time before I showed up. MIL still kisses her butt but talks about her behind her back. I prefer the short-term discomfort of telling her no than the long drawn out torture of giving in, her asking for even more, lather, rinse, repeat.

Men love bitches.

She takes a stand for what she wants. Even if she's a manipulative, "woe is me" type who uses fear, obligation, and guilt to get what she wants, she gets that response because she asserts herself. I was such b---- in my first marriage. I asserted myself BIG TIME. Ex (and so many others!) was whipped by it. Now, I'm all nice and sweet to everybody including SO, and the reason I got walked on at the very beginning of our relationship was my lack of making clear demands. Men respond to the women who make HIM jump through hoops. It has nothing to do with love.

I don't think these bms are that great. I think some of these men are idiots who were stupid enough to go back a second time.
