HOW MUCH MORE CAN I TAKE AND IT IS MY FAULT!!!

Rosedeer1's picture

well what is wrong with me, we won and she only gets my SS wed. and EOW but now she wants to change this wed. to tues. because there is an event at the school and it is on wed and she only gets him 4-7 on wed so BM asked my DH if she could take her son on tues. she she does not have to share her 3 hours at a school event. I understand her wanting to spend all 3 hours with him and not at school but I do not care, I hate her, my DH is sooooo nice that he said no problem she will get SS on tues instead of wed. but I do not see it that way I see her getting to see him on Tues.

Letter to the wife - Long long read - Still tweaking

Im writing this to try and get some of my thoughts down so I can try and get some feelings and thoughts across without allowing interruptions or emotions distract me from what I am trying to say.
I expect this will be somewhat of a wandering letter as I jump all over the place. Ill try and keep it somewhat coherent but sometimes I cant even get my feelings squared away for myself.

Haven't heard a thing

about ss since he and his mom decided to move him out while we were not at home.We went to his school and talked to the principal and he said if anything his grades were improving.Then we went to his locker and found his coat the new pair of running shoes we just bought him and a pack of smokes.So i cant grasp in my head why this kid would do something like this to his own father hes lucky hes not mine.My dh is coming around hes had a couple of bad days but its understandable.I feel so bad for him.We talked the other night and i asked him if he blamed me or had any regrets about us but he s

Last night was SS16-Zippy's ski night. DH wanted to encourage Zippy in the one thing outside of video games that Zippy would do outside of the house-Great!

We are not wealthy by any stretch of the imagination-so it kind of surprised me that DH bought Zippy expensive ski's (which Zippy ruined on his first day of skiing last year-and by some miracle the ski shop paid for half of a new pair this year!)-so DH was feeling generous and bought Zippy $300.00 ski boots (NICE!)-everyone left the store happy (I was not there so that made me happy).

My letter to BM

Anon2009's picture

BM,

I hate you. I hate your guts. I think you are disgusting for how you treat your children.

When you had custody you said some really nasty & untrue things to the SDs about DH and me. You tried to alienate them from their dad and were successful for a long time. You told your children to say mean things when I miscarried behind my back.

Seems as tho quite a few of the women on here are being pulled into a financial gutter

by either their bf's or h's. Not capitalized, because today h doesn't deserve even that much.

So I got the mail today. Included in the mail was:

Angel a tax form for a distribution he took that I knew nothing of, which will change our taxes substantially

(b) a telephone bill for a number he had 4 years ago, and

Are all boys like this or just SS? (need to vent)

SS just turned a ripe old age of 9 last weekend. Unfortunately his behavior is more like a 3 year old. Forget helping with chores or taking any responsibility. He can't even handle basic tasks. He doesn't flush the toilet, never washes his hands, can barely tie his shoes, and would go days without brushing his teeth if not hounded. He lies about everything, even if we are standing right there watching him do it. He'll come out of the bathroom and we'll ask, "did you flush? Wash your hands?

Well, our plan to see the skids has been put into action. DH spoke to both of them this past weekend when they were with MIL, and told SS about getting them up here. SS response was " OH YEAH, I WANNA COME UP!!!" So we will be saving $$and shopping for tickets soon. Our next step of course is having MIL communicate some w/ BM about this. I know BM will probably call us, she may do that soon as I know SS will tell her, and we plan to handle it in a professional manner, and if an argument/blow out happens, then we will just let it go, and stick with our first plan of going down to FL.

help- how can I keep from getting myself worked up around bm

Ok ladies and gents- I need some advice.

Like many of you, BM makes my blood boil for many, many, many reasons. I avoid her whenever possible just to keep the additional tension out of my life. But due to our circumstances I have to see her, the SK's have to see us together and she has to see my kids at least occassionally. Right now I have to see her at swimming lessons and girl scout events where her kids and my kids are involved. I've been dealing with this for almost 4 years.
