Guilty

sc12's picture

For starters I love my husband very much and our life together also. We have a beautiful little boy 16 months old together and one on the way (another boy). And I also love my ss5 as if he were my own son. I would do anything for him and treat him no differently than i do my own kids. There was a time almost 3 years ago when we were told we could not have children of our own after trying for several years and losing two. So i came to terms that I was not going to bear children and that the only child i would ever have is my ss, whom we hardly ever see. Then i found out i was pregnant and the dr were wrong. But thats besides the point.

I feel horribly guilty because sometime i think that if ss never was born and that one night had never happened how peaceful and better my life would be. That bm would not be anywhere in our lives and that my mil would not be letting bm live with her and putting bm before her own son. I am very glade though that they live so far away from us because i would go nuts having to deal with them on a regular basis.

Granted that does make it hard to see ss. But we let him know and make sure he understands that we love him and he has a home with us as well.

I hate that I sometimes think that and also that sometime we should just walk away. I dont know if i should tell dh that i sometimes think that or if i should just keep my mouth shut. I really dont know.

It's ok to have these feelings. MY SS lives over an hour and a half away, but we're planning on moving closer once our baby boy arrives and I am dreading it. Sometimes I wish our lives were different too when it comes to my SS. Lately I've been feeling at a crossroads with our first child together on the way (after we were also told we would never have children), and my life becoming all kinds of difficult and my resentment towards SS growing more and more. It really is a tough spot to be in, but never apoogize for your feelings.

My FDH says getting involved with SS's BM was the worst choice he ever made and SS was a mistake but that he has to be responsible. That means I have to put up with it.
