Been with my DP for 5 years. I am 27 he is 40.

He has two DC now 9 and 13.

I have met the 9 year old a handful of times - as a friend. Never the 13 year old.

DP has always said that I need to be more flexible and trust him more before he introduces me properly.

I do trust him. I just get annoyed that he lives two separate lives. I get annoyed that when he isn't with me I don't exist.

Last night he said he isn't prepared to introduce me now because I haven't changed. And it would mean I win.

Is he wasting my time?

It crossed my mind for a long time that maybe he hadn't finished with her. I am sure now. That he isn't with anymore. I guess I will never know.

So this afternoon. He took all of his things and left.

Fingers crossed everyone is right. At the moment it feels horrible x

It will feel horrible and I'm sorry for that.

And he will tell himself that he was right all along to not introduce you, because he knew this would happen.

So he won. I hope he enjoys whatever the prize was. Sounds like it was putting his own hand in his pocket, or sitting on the sofa between his parents.

You have such a chance for a more fulfilling life ahead of you. Flowers

You have done the right thing, a step mum role is very tough but at a minimum you need a highly supportive, emotionally intelligent partner.

You are absolutely in your prime, and I just hope you can see that.

Don't waste another day of your life.Be single and postive about your life and a fab new man will come into your life.

You are 27, young, full of life and have so much ahead of you. He is a waste of space. He snared you when you were really quite young. Thank god you have now got your freedom. Please go and enjoy it! WineFlowers

You're so young. Why tie yourself to this middle aged dickhead cocklodger who doesn't respect you?
