I'm always a little curious as to how my DH would describe the situation with the skids and me. Say if a co worker or friend or family member asked how his kids and wife got along, what would he say?

Or if he posted on a forum like this, what would he say?

I know without a doubt DH would say "everything is fine". Because in his head that is what he truly believes.It's easier to just think everything is fine then to address the real issues.

If he was pressed on the issue he would say:

"My kids are jealous of my wife."

(I think this is an easy cop out. Doesnt make his kids look too bad. But I dont think they are really jealous of me. They are MAD that I stopped the money train and I insisted on rules in the house and insisted on DH stepping up and parenting them.)

"My wife just needs to get over it.'

Anyone else want to share what they think their SO would say about the skid/BM situation?

Mine would say: "Fine. Everything is fine. Everyone is happy. Move along now, nothing to see here..." (and sticks his head back in sand)

You have to hear this!!! Just the other day AHH said that my relationship with SS is a classic Cinderella story and I am nothing but an evil stepmother!

Really- SS is now Cinderella!! I think I may start calling him that for good measure for these last few weeks until me and my bios get the hell out!

My OH would say...

"she is great, does lots for my kids, cos their BM is a b***h. They all love her to bits, my daughter idolizes her, SS19 adores her and SS17 thinks she is brilliant"

I remember once, SS19 was causing problems, and OH was talking to his dad about it. His dad (my FIL) said to OH

"well, how does StressedStep feel about it? If its causing problems in the relationship, then you have to do something about SS19 son"

to which my Darling OH replied (and told me)

"Well its not up to StressedStep, there is no problems in our relationship (how blind were you OH!?) and its my kids so its one of them"

And thats how s**t is in MY home...MINE.......OH moved in with ME AND MY DAUGHTER! But its nothing to do with me...........

My DH would say that his son and I were fine until BM blew up in a jealous rage that he actually liked me. He liked me for almost two entire months before his demeanor changed thanks to BM basically telling him he was a traitor to her if he got along with me. His daughter never liked me. She drank the BM koolaid from day one. Sometimes she acts civil and polite but only to DH, never to me.

DH would blame all of this on BM. His precious little darlings get sympathy for having BM as a mom. So far there hasn't been any effort to hold them accountable for their own actions. When they act like shits to him and then change their minds, he welcomes them back with open arms. So he would say that I am the one who quit trying. I gave up on them too soon.

I am the "evil stepmother". But he says this with his tongue planted very firmly in his cheek.

He knows what time it is finally.
