And the emotional blackmail has now started
Well last weekend the SD 33, didnt get her point across about what she thought she was due but was'nt getting from us, money, emotional support, vacation time, it goes on and on. There was a terrible argument with her having a crying screaming fit. So now she has decided not to return any of her phone calls or text from DH. We traveled 2 1/2 hours this weekend which was planned well in advance and she knew of it to see her and my BD/grandkids and she made herself unavailable. She posted on Facebook that she spent the weekend with the people who offered her a stressfree weekend, with going out to dinner, a boat ride and a concert. So I wonder how long this will go on for. Actually the drama free weekend was great, but I know that my DH feels down and out.

I know isnt it GREAT!!!??? I love it when BM or skid say they are doing this or that and skid isnt coming over for his visit(s)....TOTAL HIGHLIGHT OF MY DAY/WKEND...& LIFE!!! }:)
I am soooo beyond jealous of
I am soooo beyond jealous of you!!!! I can only hope that skid or bm will find some excuse/reason, I could care less which, to NEVER come around ever again!!! I couldnt be happier when it is just me, my S8, and my wonderful BF!!!

When skid & bm are in the picture there is nothing positive or happy about either of them or them being around. They are both just miserable pieces of shit that should have been swallowed...if you catch my drift
At 33, the only thing she can
At 33, the only thing she can expect from you is what she is prepared to mutually exchange with you - maybe some emotional support at times of particular stress, but not money, for goodness sake! She should be self supporting by now. And vacation time - well what adult EXPECTS to spend holidays with parents unless they mutually agree it and enjoy spending time together.
I would recommend your DH does not chase this woman - but leave her to calm down for a few weeks, before negotiating a less infantile way of relating, if she is capable of that, which I doubt.
Where and what do these
Where and what do these S/Adults think they are accomplishing?? Her Dad and I have been married 27 years so if she thinks this will break us up, it wont. We are used to her drama. So a weekend without it is great, but DH has a heart of gold and I know it will wear on him.
Yup! We are enduring the
Yup! We are enduring the same "punishment." DH was the only one, from his family, who did not send money a few months a ago, after she cried "poor mouth" for the umpteenth time in 3 years. DH and I have not heard from her since. However, DH's 11 year old granddaughter has sent some pretty heart-wrenching emails, wondering why we are avoiding them. These emails were clearly written, at the hand of my DH's daughter. SGD has sent me the same emails, but I am not taking the bait. DH is also being punished by his 20 year-old daughter. It breaks his heart and is pretty much sanctioned by the ILs. I refuse to make it an issue in our home and will not be part of the "drama triangle" that SA described in one of her blogs.
I hope Daddy does not give
I hope Daddy does not give into the tantrum. Crying - sounds like a 4 year old who got her Barby doll taken away.
No, I am sure DH will stick
No, I am sure DH will stick to his guns. Just as he has in the past, just cant believe The games people play. We built a life by sweat and hard work. It just erks me to no end that some Skids seem to think they are entitled and the hand is always out trying to get the next gig
I did tell him we are going
I did tell him we are going on vacation and spending every penny we own. We worked for it, we are spending it!!
i haven't heard from my SD22
i haven't heard from my SD22 in a year. i wish i had known how wonderful this would be BEFORE i married her father.
Well the Holidays are right
Well the Holidays are right around the corner, so should be interesting how it plays out. The hand is alway out :jawdrop: during the giving season
That is what I am waiting
That is what I am waiting for...let the games begin...and may the odds be ever in your favor...

Well I had a good talk with
Well I had a good talk with my DH last night about the events that happen'd. It seems that it all started because she the SD is upset that we talk about our grandkids doing so well. The 8yr old reads at a 6th grade level, the 2 1/2 year old is talking up a storm, the 8 month old is so darn cute, yatta yatta yatta and she feels jealous that they are getting all the attention and admiration. For Gods sake, your 33 years old, Grow UP!!!
same same same. I did not see
same same same. I did not see the oldest sd for 7 YEARS as she lived on the other side of the country. When her dad told her to co-ordinate dates with me for a winnebago visit to our house she got so pissed she didnt speak to me for a year and a half. Now that she wants to send her kids to us for babysitting she acts like we r BFF's.
