I need DHs help, but he goes off to frolick with SS9

LauraHelton331's picture

DH was supposed to come home from work at 2pm and help me move our computer out of BS1's room and into our bedroom. I really need this done ASAP b/c about 2 weeks ago I started medical transcription school online. I work full time as well, and it is really hard to get anything done with the computer in the baby's room (i.e. he naps for hours at a time --right when I should be studying, but I can't get to the computer!!).

In Regards to my Last Blog

I think it was "I am NOT his mom". I wanted to thank you all for your great comments, and since I just got on here, I figured if I replied to them individually they would never get seen b/c my blog is so old now.

To the person who said "Why get involved with a man with kids if you feel that way?"

I am NOT his mom

I might be the worst person in the whole wide world, but another post got me thinking...I really want to be a completely uninvolved SM. I would like to be cordial to my SS8 EOW when he's here, but basically just go about my business and take care of my baby. I don't want to hang out or chat or play games or anything. He can do whatever childlike things he wants to do and interract with my DH however he likes, I just don't want any involvement at all.

SS8 is Sick = DRAMA

SS8 came over today and he was sick. Really sick. Temperature of 103 sick. My first thought was "I don't want this kid in my house sick. He will make my son (who is 10 months old) sick. He should stay with his mom or grandma."

But then I thought, well, if SS8 was my real son, he would be here if he was sick or not. It's just a part of having kids. Sometimes one gets sick and you deal with it.

SS8 and BS8months

SS8 is here and driving me up the wall. He wants my approval. He really does. But the way he goes about it is just not working for me. And I don't know what to do or say.

Whenever I am in the room with him, he immediately runs over to my BioSon (8 months old) and starts coo cooing baby talk at him and saying "Kissy Wissy" and kissing him all over. Meanwhile, he is glancing back at me to make sure I am watching. It is really driving me nuts.

Am I nuts or are there some boundary issues here with the BM?

Let me start by saying that I in NO WAY think that there is ANYTHING whatsoever between my DH and his ex-wife. But several things make me uncomfortable.

1. DH has gone to get his haircut. He gets his haircut at the place where BM is a receptionist. He gets it done very cheaply, but still. I don't like it.

2. I work 3rd shift, and a few weeks ago, I woke up in the evening to BM and her boyfriend drinking beer and watching football with DH and SS. No one asked me what I thought. She was just there. DH said,"Well I had too many hamburgers grilled so I invited them over."

I NEED YOUR ADVICE!!!!!!!!!

BM is the custodial parent, with DH having SS every other weekend. If BM sends SS to stay with his Nanna about 3 nights a week (minimum), is that being neglectful? SS would say he absolutely LOVES being at Nanna's. But DH would like to have SS over HERE if he is not with BM.

SS would rather be at Nanna's than anywhere else. It's like Disneyland for him. And quite frankly, I swear that his Nanna secretly thinks she is his birth mother.

Remember when weekends were something to look forward to? Ha!

I realize that what I am about to say is very harsh, but if I can't say it in a place "where stepparents come to vent", then I don't know where I can say it.

It's that time again. The weekend with SS8!! Yay. I'm so over him. He is SO WEIRD, such a little momma's boy brat, and I'm tired of him, all the drama he brings, his stupid mom, and paying for his ungrateful little ass.

Child Support is Evil, Unfair, and Ridiculous

Speaking of child support, I'm absolutely baffled as to why BM is always so strapped for cash that my SS8 comes over and is excited for Pop Tarts b/c "Momma can't afford to buy groceries." And when DH and BM are each going to pay for half of SS's yearbook, SS immediately goes and gets cash out of his piggy bank to cover BM's half. Vomit. That's what happens when the stupid biotch says stuff to a kid that she shouldn't.
