JUST A QUICK RANT:

Not sure if its because I'm pregnant, but I seriously 'despise' my SO's son. 

Its no wonder his mother isnt in his life. No wonder her husband doesnt allow him to their home.

I do not like to think or wish bad things on ANYONE, but he makes it almost impossible not to. 

Everything he does: walks, talks, eats, cleans, stands, dresses.. EVERYTHING

Needed to get that out. 

 

Finally putting my foot down

So my SS is now on summer vacation, he will now be home ALL DAY until he has to go to summer school in about two weeks. But today I plan to finally speak up to my SO and throw down some consequences! My SS has BEEN slacking on looking after the dog and I have had enough. I have had to type up a flyer that reminds him to check on the dog, like he is a child, and plan to put it up in his room. I will also be asking for the TV wire and will not give it back until I feel that he is doing what needs to be done.

Drained, emotionally & physically

We went a whole day without speaking. Picked up my daughter after work, came home to change and my DD and I headed out. After a few hours, came home, nice enough to bring food for EVERYONE, but still SO and I arent speaking. SO is in the bedroom and I'm in the family room. Just before bed he comes out. He doesnt understand what is going on with us, with me. He feels as if I'm pulling away from him. All I can do is cry as this man sits here and tells me that he feels like I dont love him anymore. The conversation doesnt end well. I cant sleep.

Is leaving my only option?

I’ve not been on this site for very long, but in the time that I have I’ve felt so much relief. Not only to be able to vent but to have so many people understand and be experiencing the same issues. I have been doing a lot of reading of other situations similar to mine and am a little saddened to see most of the advice given is to leave. And as much as that is usually the smartest and healthiest option, it is most difficult. I love my SO and it makes it that much harder that after trying for so long, we are finally having a child.

The two Bs: Boys & Bathrooms

We have a 3 bed 2 bath. My DD now has to completely share a bathroom with my SO and me because my SS is disgusting & dirty. He is now the sole user of our main bathroom, which he is not keeping clean. He is supposed to be cleaning it at least 2x a week, and still needs to be told to do so. It’s so embarrassing when I have company because he has his hair ALL OVER! I hate when I get surprise visits because I know my bathroom is dirty. Not only that, but he will be in there for up to an hour-hour and a half. He sits in there on his phone.

Help . . Horrible or Hormones!?

I'm 7 months pregnant and have been living with my fiancé for about a year and a half. Lately we have been having more fights about what should be getting done around the house. He and my SS, who is 17, are responsible for taking care of the dog and garbage. My daughter is 10 and doesn’t really have much to do other than help me when I ask and keep her room clean. Everyone is responsible for cleaning up after themselves; dishes and/or any mess they make. I hate the fact that I have to keep on these two men about what needs to be done.

New Arrival!

Let me start off by saying: "Finally!"

As a mother of one, soon to be two, and step mother of one; I cant begin to describe how relieved I am to have a place where I can express feelings, emotions and thoughts without sounding like Lady Tremaine. As if trying to parent a child that knows you arent their actual parent isnt hard enough, trying to express its difficulties to others without judgment is even harder.
