You guys seem alright on here so I thought I'd give you a shout. My Mum & Dad spilt around 9 years ago. I have two younger (full) sisters. I'm now 18, and both have remarried. My Mum remarried first (I have a feeling it was an affair). My Dad remarried 3 years later.
My issue would be that my Mum seems to think that our step-dad is our dad. I'm 18 and he keeps talking about how he's going to be a great grandad, I don't know why I don't get a say! And when I try to counter this with 'Oh Dad's wife is going to be a grandma too then' she gets really angry. It annoys me because we still have extremely frequent contact with our Dad and actually our step dad is only 30 - you do the math. It's just bloody irritating! Is it unreasonable to feel like this?
Also, my Grandma told me something that makes me suspect that SDs mother had something to do with my real 'rents spilt. I didn't like her before but now I actually loath her. It could be that I need to blame someone, but she's not a nice woman and she's really weird. She keeps trying to convince my mum to have another baby!
I know I sound childish and/or naive, but I feel sick all of the time from butterflies. I'm not quite sure how to feel. :(
