Hello all, not been around as blooming wireless keeps playing up! Knackered today as dd was up virtually all night with a cough, everytime she drifted off she woke herself up coughing. ARGH! dss coming tomorrow and not looking forward to it, no particular reason, I'm behaving like a spoilt brat really. Blush Just having a really low day, ex dh seems to be everywhere I turn, meaning that I'm avoiding seeing people I've known all my life as its just too much hassle and too bloody wierd bumping into him. So have decided, finally, to walk away and let him get on with it. Lifes too short isn't it? Also think dh doesn't need it! Feel let down by people though who I feel should have told him to move on by now. Sorry for whinging.

hi all
can i join in. cant belive i found this thread.
its like reading my own story got 3 dss`s. dp used to go out around his mate while i was stuck indoors looking after his kids of couse they walked all over me. lied and even took money from my purse little sods this went on for 6 years until i started to take my dd out everytime they are here (go park for the day or just visit friends) now he is forced to take control. now he sees what they are really like and i am not the wicked old wich anymore. they dont come around so much now as they dont like his rules RESULT i was too soft on them and if i did tell them of i got the usual "you are not my mum you cant tell me what to do"

geissi, hop over to the Nutty stepmums thread and introduce yourself. This site is great for letting off steam and having a laugh.

Also you can post new threads for specific problems, a lot of us have experienced similar so we may have advice or just be able to offer tea and sympathy etc.

Claire. I don’t know what to say except to offer my sympathies. It’s hard keep bumping into the ex. Sad

Thanks Squirrel, think its just time for me to make some tough decisions and walk away from some people. Found out today that x has continued to go to my brother and sil house every fortnight for dinner, and they've never even told me! Feel so betrayed Sad Could really do with the virtual night in to make me snap out of this silly mood, but alas work beckons!!!!! dss is at least behaving, being an angel actually, just took them both swimming. Ever wish u could hit an off button anyone and take a break!!!

Claire7676 I'm really shocked that your brother has not at least told you that your ex has continued to come to their house. I would expect my brother to have minimal contact with an ex of mine but if they did have a relationship I would at least expect him to be upfront about it. Angry on your behalf.

Thank u, was beginning to think it was me being unreasonable. I know its not all rational, but break ups aren't are they?!!
