Texting w bf's daughters' mother

OK is it just me or is it weird for my boyfriend's adult daughters to group text him and include their mother on the texts like they're still a family together? I find this strange. My adult son doesn't do that with me and his dad and step sisters. I guess everybody does their own thing but he and his ex-wife aren't friends or friendly so I find it odd that his daughters do this especially when they post everything that they do on Facebook too where their parents can both see. He told me it is really no concern of mine. Ugh. These are daughters that really don't acknowledge me when I'm around so I'm sure that's why it bothers me more.

Oh he also did tell me though that he now has his ex blocked in these messages so he can't see her messages because of how she treated me at his daughter's wedding after I told him.

Sounds pretty standard for Adult SD they love to find ways to stick it too stepmom. However sounds like your boyfriend has found a way to handle it. Awesome that he blocked BM on his own. Sounds like he's doing a good job of staying out of drama.

I have no problem with group texts lol, I do not care who's in it.... so this would not bother me one bit,

it's the one on one messages that gets my hair raising

SS25 does this all the time. I think it is weird also. And lazy.

SS knows they don't like each other so why group them in all the time. But it is really something that you can do NOTHING about. Let it go. I would be way more concerned it my DH said this to me ...."He told me it is really no concern of mine." WHAT! No, that would not go over well with me at all.

Ya, I agree with Willow, I mean how long does it take to forward a text?? That'd be like me texting my dad and step dad on a group text (my mom passed away), there is no reason for it and I need to respect their relationship with me by understanding that.

No he was showing me something on his phone and I saw it. I have seen it before. I think it is a common thing for them. he refused to show me the texts though which I find strange. what's the secret. the thing I have a problem with with anything to do with their mother is my bf has double standards and gets irritated when my son's dad who is 11 texts me about our visitation, etc. because he flirts sometimes. I ignore it though and don't respond. he says that anything to do with their mother (including when he went to his parents to eat with her and the kids and I wasn't even told about it) is ok because she doesn't interfere or flirt with him. they are over each other. so him texting with his kids and ex like they are still a young family is just odd to me and unnecessary to me and disrespectful to me from his kids I think. he doesn't agree of course. he said if my kids want to text me and their mother together, then they can do that.

he did I guess say something to his daughter about the wedding thing (previous post - she instructed her mother to not let me sit with her dad and the mother saved him a seat) cause he told me she wasn't speaking to him and just recently started with short things. awww that's so sad she got called out on her horrible manners and got upset. he, however, refuses to tell me what their conversation consisted of. that pisses me off too. I said you should discuss whatever I want to and not tell me it's none of my business. am i right? ugh I'm sure it's because his daughter said something hateful about me and he's afraid it will make me not like her. too late.
