Hello there - Im new
Hello. I wanted to introduce myself since I am new to this forum. DH and I have been married for 2 years. Our family consists of his (d10,s8,s6), mine (d7), and ours (s1). My ex has a girlfriend (no kids) who refuses to talk to me - at all - she "hates" me because of the stories she has heard from my ex (we all have stories, and she is downright ignorant if she thinks that he is innocent)and she wont even come near me if I am in the area. DH ex and bm of his kids is also re-married to a man who has two kids (s7,d4). I feel like I live in a very tangled web, and decided that I would join a forum so that I can reach out to others who may be in similar situations. My friends are all still have their natural families and cannot relate to my life in this way. I had a good experience in a verbal abuse forum when I was going through my divorce, so I am hoping for a similar experience. Can you tell me a little bit about yourselves?
I am also new here! So far I
I am also new here! So far I really love this "sanctuary". Its nice to be able to vent and hear about other peoples experiences. I hope you enjoy it too.
I have been married for 8 years. My DH has D18 and D13. I have a S10 and then We have S8 and D6. My ex is in the navy so My S10 is with me full time and hardly sees my ex. My DH girls used to live with us full time 6 years ago (for 2 years with me in the family) before I had to kick them out (long stories).
Woah. That's a lot of kids
Woah. That's a lot of kids lol.
Been with my SO for 3 years, and he has a D13. Our situation with SD13 and crazy BM is beyond complicated and I wont bore you with details
Welcome! I hope you enjoy it here! Just a little advice, its been different around here lately. Be careful who's advice you take, and take everyone's comments (especially negative ones) with a grain of salt

yes I found that out yesterday! lol I don't really want advice, just a place to vent and be heard.

welcome!
i have an SD13, no bios of my own. BM isnt as crazy as some (but still crazy nonetheless), but she's an parental alienator so the once close relationship my fiance had with his daughter is all but gone thanks to her.
I'm new too, my first week.
I'm new too, my first week. I have SD8 and BD11. My BD11 lives with us full time and SD8 is with us 50/50. She is a total whiny brat and my SO is a Disney Dad and is oblivious. I found this site to help me to vent, realize that I have the same story as so many other people, how to disengage, and how to step back and laugh with other people struggling through the same problems. So welcome aboard!
I keep reading "SO" in place

Welcome. I hope you find this to be a good place to vent, contribute, and pick up some useful advice from others who are living the blended family dream.
I am Step Dad and have been for nearly 20 years. My son (SS) is 21. His mom and I met when he was 15mos old and married the week before he turned 2yo. My amazing bride and I will celebrate our 20th this summer and will renew our vows in front of friends and family.
This is my second marriage. My XW and I were married for 2.5 years and did not spawn. I have no bio kids.
My bride was a 16yo single teen mom. The Sperm Idiot was a 22yo gangster/rapper wannabe. DW went on to graduate with her HS class with honors, a dual major BS with honors, an MBA with honors, and has a successful career as a CPA. We met during the last semester of my 11 year undergrad career and her first semester out of HS. We have a 12 year age difference. I am 50, she is 38. I am an engineer, have an MBA and a successful career of my own.
I am blessed to share my life with an amazing woman.
SS-21 is an only child in our family and the eldest of 4 out of wedlock Sperm Idiot spawn by 3 different baby mamas on the shallow and polluted end of his gene pool.
SS is a good kid, a young man of character, and a self supporting viable young adult. He is in the USAF.
That about covers the abbreviated Rags story.
being relatively new here, i
being relatively new here, i never knew this about your wife Rags. Amazing story and proves that being a teen mom doesnt have to "ruin your life".
