I married my husband when his son already 18 years old. Before, he lived with his mom but then they go in the big fight and he moved to us. At first, I tried to be nice and understanding “teenage” but then I saw he just taken advantage on us. Like, he party everyday, have like 10 friends sleep over every night and digging my foods. I’m non-smoking and non-drinking but my stepson smoked weeds in the house all the time even I said no, my house always stinks. So noisy at night even I had 2 kids under ages who need sleep early and I was pregnant at that time too. And he doesn’t go school, doesn’t go work, not helping around the house, one time I asked him babysitting the kids so I can go doctor for a couple hours, and he locked them in the room and left the house, even didn’t lock the front door to go out with his friends, just called us at the middle at the doctor appointment to say he leaving now. Anytime we just left the house then he let the drunk friends come in to smoke and eating our foods. He even sneaky his friends in at 3am, from the window of his room when we put the alarm on. So one day, enough is enough, I put my feet down and tell him he needs follow my rules or he out, then he was so mean with me, called me mental woman, crazy as f*, Asian bitch. We was on the huge fight and my husband even he stand up for me with his son but in weak way. And after that I cannot like and stand my stepson anymore. And that’s 1 year ago.
1 year after, he still here, still no work no school, just playing game all day long, even cannot clean up after himself. And he slowly ruining our marriage. Because like I said, I don’t like him, I’m feeling ashamed about myself to saying that but that’s true, I don’t like him and need living with him everyday make me feel angry and miserable. And everyday, I keep fighting with his dad because he doesn’t want to ask him move out if he cannot find someone to take care for his son!!! And with me, that answer like his son will live here forever because who will want to adopt a 20 years old adult who do nothing but playing game and smoke weeds?? His mom even didn’t want he come back to the house, she even told me that if I cannot handle him then just kick him out but my husband just cannot do that with his dear son. And this is my husband’s house so yes I don’t have any voice about that, he kept telling me he will solve it and give a deadline but when the time is coming he always found some bs excuses to refuse to do that. He said his son is getting better (no friends come overnight anymore, no smoke weeds in the house anymore but that because last time I got so mad to his son and his friends so I kicked them all out and tell them they don’t allow in my house anymore) and I’m a terrible stepmom wants to let “a kid” live inn the street like that. A couple months before I told him that if he doesn’t want to ask his son move out then I and the kids will move because I don’t want to live like that anymore, and he said to me he cannot live separate so if I move out that mean we will divorce. I just came the country after married him, and our new born just 4 months, our kids is 1 is 7 and 1 is 2. I have no friends or family in this country. So yes, when he said that, I scared and don’t move out anymore. But I don’t feel happy and comfortable to live in the same house with my stepson either. I’m feeling lost, empty and sad everyday. I cried every night and every time I heard or saw my stepson I fell annoyed. My family is a tradition family in a tradition country, I cannot come back there with 3 kids after divorced. Nowadays I just feel so lost, I don’t want to see my stepson anymore. I don’t know what to do anymore.
