THE WORST SITUATION EVER
So right off the bat, I'm in a horrible situation that is and isn't as bad as it seems. I'm quite young and my bf of course is a bit older and he's been married and has 2 kids (boy-7, girl-8) the girl is a bit of a drama queen and the boy has a type of autism and ADHD so he's very off the walls, disobidient and disrespectful. He's constantly destroying things, cursing at adults, hitting his sister and always up someones ass. Now I live with of course my BF, his rude immature mother, his quiet father who's always on the couch watching tv, his ex wife(...yes unfortunately she moved out for a month then moved back in), the 2 kids and then his sister her husband and their 2year old literally lives 2 doors down and are always over. So this house is completely ridiculous but I'm obviously head over heels in love with this guy and he treats me amazing. So my problem is, his mother is always calling me really bad names and telling me to get the F outta her house and telling people I threatened to hurt her and that I broke up their whole family. So her attacking me everytime I walk around makes me feel completely uncomfortable with being around so I've been upstairs in our room alone while my bf is downstairs with the kids and dealing with all the garbage. My bf wants me to come down and be around though and I want to again too but then when I see her face or hear her voice it automatically makes me really angrY and therefore I don't treat my step kids as nice as usual cuz I have an attitude when I'm on defence mode and then his mom wll make comments towards me accusing me of being abusive and saying "u don't like kids very much huh?" And she will say all this IN FRONT of the kids and they hear everything and I'm worried one day when they get older and start understanding that they will either see her for the psycho she is or take her side and start disliking me because they believe I broke their parents up and that I'm a bad person and that I don't like them even though we have a great relationship. They love being around me their always asking wat I'm doing and why I never come down but the way his mom is has been affecting my relationship with them and I'm having trouble pushing her aside and I know I won't be getting out of this house anytime soon cuz I'm not employeed and my bf got laid off so right now we only have to pay 300 a month and we are buying food off my savings and watever he has from his unemployement after he pays wat he has to. And what's really annoying is that his ex wife always gets to go sleepover her bfs house and works during the day so my bf is stuck watching the kids all day by himself and I don't get to spend like any time with him.
Honestly I think I only covered half of my problems here. Any advice on what I've tried to get out so far please?
What do you mean you are
What do you mean you are annoyed that your BF had to watch his kids all day? He is the dad - who do you think should be watching them. If his ex is working, then it is HIS responsibility to watch HIS kids. It doesn't sound like a very healthy situation for you or the kids. It does sound like you wish they weren\t around and i think his mother knows it and is calling you on it. I don't blame her for being crabby, she has a bunch of freeloaders living in her house. You need to get a job and move out and start dating - not playing house with a guy who has too many responsibilities. Good luck.
I have to agree with this.
I have to agree with this. You and your bf are living there and aren't working. He also has two kids living there. Ok, his ex is there, but at least SHE is working. It may or may not be your fault you're unemployed, but the fact remains that his parents are supporting a bunch of people and you aren't their responsibility. And your bf has kids. That is a fact. Right now they live with him and it is absolutely his responsibility to watch them. Thank God his parents didn't take on that responsibility too.
Walk away from this man.
Walk away from this man.
The MIL has to be ready to pull her hair out dealing with all of those people in her home. She may be a bitch, but it's her house. She isn't forcing you to stay there. You are free to pack your stuff and leave at any time.
If FIL want to sit on HIS sofa, in HIS house he can.
It's clear that these people do not want you in their house. Many parents do not like having a girlfriend living their home. Most hate have a girlfriend who isn't working living in their home.
Pack your stuff and go.
Yep I agree with all that was
Yep I agree with all that was said. Find someone new and get out this situation. You didn't post your age so I'm guessing you must be pretty young. Can you imagine the Hell you would face if you got pregnant by your bf? Don't waste your youth on a man with so many responsibilities that he can't take time out for you. I know you said you love him but you don't seem happy and the only way you will be happy is to get out of that house and situation. If his mother is unaccepting of your relationship then I would just move on to someone who doesn't have so much drama in their life. I understand he treats you well and the rent is cheap but in the end it's not worth it. Because it is costing you your happiness and I can tell you right now that if you stay resentment will build up and it will destroy your relationship with your bf because you are using YOUR savings to fix the financial problems. Even if you have to work at McDonald's do it save your money and get outta there ASAP!
This man does not ..."treat
This man does not ..."treat you amazing". Please make no mistake about that.
^^^THIS^^^ A man who treats
^^^THIS^^^
A man who treats you 'amazing' provides a home for you (not with his parents, his ex and their children), food for you, clothing for you, and all the nice things that women appreciate.
MOVE OUT
MOVE OUT
Totally agree. This is very
Totally agree. This is very Jerry Springer-esque. Girlfriend has no buisness living there-why on earth is she there? In fact, boyfriend, ex wife, other person, and girlfriend have no business living there.
The only person I feel bad for is the Grandma. I'd kick everyone out of the house.
I can't blame the MIL for
I can't blame the MIL for going psycho.
She may think the OP is crazy for moving into her house. Come on, how many women would allow themselves to get caught up in something like this?
I bet anything the old lady and her friends are blowing the phone lines up with this story.
This guy has to have the MAGIC. STICK. How else can you get your current SO to live in the same home as your ex???
There is no stick magical
There is no stick magical enough to make me live in that situation. Bat shit crazy.
I agree. I am pretty even
I agree. I am pretty even keel but if I suddenly had 3 extra adults living him my house and two of them were unemployed and one of those unemployed people was not even related to me and then I had two kids there as well and one of them was destroying stuff, I'd probably be loonier than a lake on an early New Hampshire lake morning.
i feel for you. while i do
i feel for you. while i do agree you need to get a job and gtfo (get the eff out) of that house, i understand it's prob not easy in this economy etc, etc, etc. you need to start taking baby steps though. make a plan to get out and start taking steps every day towards it, if you really wanna be with this guy. go to an employment centre, take an internship in a field you love (did you go to college?), take a shitty job even if you feel it's below you just to get some income! it's better than what you're doing now. just the planning and business will likely take your mind of the situation. this isn't healthy for anyone involved the way it is now. good luck.
