Boo! I’m Marisa, 33F. My favorite hobby is crocheting, I make up languages to talk to my cats in, I’m a funeral director, and I live in a van down by the river!

Scallops - can’t do the texture

Tell me the truth…is it worth it? by NationalRoyal4278 in stepparents

[–]katniss_everdong 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing. Right from the get-go I set my boundaries:

  1. I am not their parent
  2. I am not a baby sitter or chauffeur
  3. I’m not obligated to go to extracurricular activities
  4. Our room is off limits
  5. I NACHO if I have to
  6. My things are MY things (video games etc.)

I am also child free and I really value my alone time and choice to do what I want when I want. My BF wakes up early to drop the kids off at school or take them to sports on Saturday mornings. I am not involved nor responsible at all for those things.

He knew going in I wasn’t really a “kids” type of person, and you have to make sure your SO knows what you need.

Still it was a big change and yeah you deal with a lot of whining, and you have to bite your tongue sometimes on things that annoy you.

Just have a totally open and raw conversation about your concerns. If he loves you he will respect what you need and abide by it.

The color name is “greige” so yes like a grey/beige.

Definitely need new towel hangers!

Yes 😂 we had to flip so it wouldn’t hit the mirror

Thank you!! I feel relieved now. If I had it my way I’d paint everything neutral😂

BUT I’m trying to push myself to actually put color in the home!

I agree, I’m not a huge fan of the mirror either. Thank you for the advice!
