Christmas was good - everyone on best behavior, and lots of family merriment. It went well! But now I am reviewing the past year, with all the bad arguments, challenges and small amounts of success. It was a rough year. SO is now divorced a few months, some alimony is paid, no Child Support, no additional conflicts.

Now I understand why I am always upset!

Reading through the different forums and postings, I have now been able to put words to the things that I have been hurt by and that have long frustrated me to the point of insanity! It should be freeing and lightening the load to vent and read others vents, but I am worried that it is adding fuel to the fire that is already there, making it larger and rage out of control.

SD17.5's favorite saying: "I was here FIRST!"

I have a SD17.5, who is always saying this when we are arguing or when we are making household decisions, or talking household rules. I have been in my DH's life for about 4 years now. We have been together as a couple for 2 1/2 years. We have lived together 1 year this December. I did not have much to bring in, some art, and plants and special knick knacks. DH bought new furniture after kicking BM out for cheating on him. We have been acquiring furniture and making things nice together, when we can afford to.

Burp, Slurp, Fart, Yell - Are manners lost forever?

I have a SD17 (and a half). Ive been in her life now for oh - about 2.5 years so that would make her 15 at the time. Prime teenage angsty years. The absolute worst time to meet anyone, especially someone's kids where their mother hates you. So many things are wrong in my situation, but this post is about manners.
