Greetings fellow step-talkers. I have been laying low lately, but still lurking here. Allow me to give you all a quick update. Our custody drama is over.

The judge stated in pre-trial he would not alter the 50/50 split so twat waffle had to settle. Dh gave her one additional day (so now 60/40) and another $125 a month in child support. Which he didn't have to do as the judge stated he would leave the order the same. But my dh must like getting it up the a$$ from bm so he "negotiated" that. Twat waffle must also do 50% of the driving, much to her dismay. She also cannot dictate extra curricular activities which dh does not approve and force him to pay half. The greatest of all (thanks to dh's lawyer) was that the inbred knuckle-dragging swamp cunt can NO longer email him at work on his work account. This was a big deal since they work at the same place and she has used this email to harass him repeatedly on the job. She must use his private email now and wait for "a response in a timely matter."

So this all seems to be good news. Only the damage is done. SS has been seeing a therapist because he is "insecure" and "still having bathroom issues" and "Princess Mofo told him bm was trying to take him away from his dad". That is categorically untrue. I never told ss that. I never discussed this with ss period. Dh knows this. The one time we did speak to him regarding it he was told that his schedule "may be" changing and he would not be here as much. So once again, I have been vilified. I am the evil step-mother. Dh hashed it out with this therapist on the phone and told her the real deal, but for me it's too late.

Dh made me several promises as we were going thru all this. Some pertaining to money and selling useless big ticket items we don't need to drum up some revenue to pay the lawyer fees. Has is happened? No. Will it happen? Doubtful. He also told me he would seek employment elsewhere to get away from devil cunt. Has he? No. Will he? Doubtful.

I've since disengaged from ss. I no longer touch him. I barely speak. I do not attend his extracurricular activities. I no longer will take him for haircuts on my time. I am not watching him, alone, without dh, anymore on my time.

Bm continues to nickel and dime us. She attempted to give dh a receipt for ss's haircut so he could "pay half". I told dh, "No. That's what her child support should be paying for instead of her "new" car she conveniently bought two weeks ago." She wants money for school picks. Money for activities. Money for his cord blood that was saved at birth. I'm surprised she hasn't submitted a bill for half his groceries.

Anyway, I'm rambling. To get to the point... I don't feel the same about my dh anymore. I'm sorry. Perhaps my love was fickle. Or perhaps I'm just tired of being the town whipping girl. I have been blamed for so much by twat waffle, the in-laws from hell, ss, a therapist I've never met and dh. My dh didn't stand up for me. He let all these people bulldoze me and make me the "villain" so he could seem like the knight.

Well be forewarned dh... If you force me to be the villain, I will play that role with gusto.
