I'm hating being a step parent
so my bf and myself have been together for a year and living together for a little over a month.. He has a 6 year old son and I have a 3 year old son. We both are divorced and this is both of our first relationships since then.
I'm having a few issues being the stepmom... Number one issue is that I watch his son 2 days a week. They are his days and he has joint custody with his ex as do I. We have the exact same schedule almost. My sons father picks my son up in the morning and his ex gets her son at 4pm. So basically while he's at work I have to sit home all day and watch his son. It wouldn't be too big of an issue if the same was done for me. I had a job but due to no babysitter and having to work around his schedule and watching his son I lost it. I still pay bills, I have savings, I still pitch in... Those things haven't changed. I'm also going through real estate school.
Basically I needed him to watch my son every other Saturday so I could work. And he would always ask me to find a sitter. I couldn't. He always had plans with his son, baseball... Ect and didn't want to bring my son along. . I eventually just stopped asking and lost my job. Now I'm stuck still watching his son 2 days a week... Plus real estate school..
Also his son pretty much is the most rude 6 year old ever. I ask how he's doing... It's leave me alone! Other phrases are I don't care, whatever..... He's spoiled rotten. You have to pretty much be his slave. Get everything he asks. That's usually waisted ... The child is waited on hand and foot. My 3 year old does more. He sits on an iPad 24/7 watching YouTube and if he wants to play he usually needs someone to play with him. Like games of any kind. Now if he loses there's a huge fit ... I hate playing games with him. I took him to the batting cages and he through a fit that I wouldn't let him play golf too!!!!
He's also just mean to my son. Which is the biggest annoyance. Like be nice to my kid... He's 3!
Yeh sally nailed this one.
Yeh sally nailed this one. Effective immediately he needs to find a sitter cause you are going to school and job hunting . He shud understand since he wouldn't help you out and you always had to find a sitter too.
This is no environment for you not your son to be in where you are being dictated to and put second at all times
This man wants a live in nanny he can have sex with not a relationship
I suggest you end it now and move out. Go talk to your old manager and see if you can get your job back or start applying for other jobs. Stop pissing your savings away on this a-hole
Also I would suggest you need to life coaching or counselling to build up more respect for yourself so you don't let someone walk all over you again like this man had done
On the toxic Skid.... foot
On the toxic Skid.... foot meet rump. Lather, rinse, repeat.
You lost your job due to babysitting your BFs spawn? :jawdrop: WTF were you thinking?
Time to pull your head out and find a man who is actually a man and who will step up and be an equity life partner to you rather than leeching you dry.
