Been in a 6 years relationship with my partner and we share a delightful 4 year old wee boy together. She have another 2 (a girl at 16 and a boy at 14) and let be hienstvi dont have the best of time with them
Although i woud make an effort, but is never appricated or i woud just ignored them when any issue occurs
recently my partner have take a notion of exploring (party,travels girls weekend away) and taking the last 6/7 weekend off and her explanation was she never get to do fun stuff when she was young..
So the weekend just past she decide to travel to liverpool for a 4 fays weekend.. leaving me in the house with the wee man and the two other young ones
The first night, the kids has made an utter mess in the kitchen which i did cleaned up after them and ecplained to my partner that ebough is enough i am.not here to run after her kids whie she away every weekend she did have an word with the wee girl and she did somehow cleaning the house up but that was only because she was hosting a house party for 20 of her friends that night without my permissions (thr party was full of drink and loud noises) which i told my parnter i was unacceptable for her to do so in my house without asking.. she said she would handle it when she gets home
I also explained to her that her weekend away not just putting stress on me.. but also in my work... ( i am a self employed shop owner my partner work for me ) which the household relys on the income to pay for the house and bills etc however with she booking her unexpected trips that would hold the shop back because her shift needs covered and myself cannot go in because we do have a little one to mind
I has said to her this is getting to much as she never resepct my importance of work and that she go away and leave me with her kids to mind that have zero respect for me (their dad have nothing to do with them and have not pay any maintemce for them for the past 5 years)
I bought up the party her wee girl hosted however she make me out to be the liar and said there was only 4/5 people in our hiuse that night and is was me being controlling and trying to make an argument out of nothing
I am on the verge of leaving this shitty situation and i want to know what would you folks advice me to do
As i am definelty not getti g the respect, my business which is the source of income for our household is not getting valued and my partner want me to say nothing while her kids just walk all over me
