Hi I've never done this before but I'm at my wits end and need some advice. I've been with my partner 7 years and lived with him 6, his son is now 16 and has always lived with us and due to his mother's personal problems he has no contact with her and says he hates her guts, he even tells people she's dead! The problem I have is he's always lied to be about liking me, he's nice to my face but says the most disgusting things behind my back. I've really tried over the years I've bent over backwards for him I even take time off work to give him a lift to college every week I'm nice to his friends even when they're rude to me, I'm nice to his gf and even tolerate his dog even though I'm a bit scared of dogs! Me and his father have a toddler who he's horrible to and I'm expected to just ignore it which is really hard. I've tried talking to my partner and he just thinks he's perfect and I'm the problem, this boy constantly tells lies about me to anyone that will listen and has even had my arrested for hitting him which he later admitted wasn't true he just wanted me gone! I'm not sure I can take any more, I'm actually starting to hate him, is this normal behaviour from a stepchild??? And if so what do I do?
