Hi everyone! WOW..I have been reading your post for a few hours(yes, hours) and I am soooo happy I am not alone. I thought I was the only one who felt this way, and I thought I was a horrible person for feeling it too. I have been married to my DH for 9 years, and raising his son(now 13) since he was 4. We have a son together(8 now). And the BM is not in the picture, she hasn't been in it since SS was 5. I have been raising him, and it's been an uphill climb out of hell..and I don't think I am getting near the top. I hate to say it, but really don't like him.
