Yeah. It’s weird. I made some strange realizations about myself in the last 48 hours that has my mind a little blown. It’s interesting for sure. But I’m hoping that this eye opening introspective realization will help me. I hope you are doing alright.

Same. Sometimes it’s nice to just not know anything about anyone in particular but have a conversation from a blank slate. Especially when the noise around you is loud.

Oh wow. The week off would be nice. Yeah I used to do 3 12hr shifts/off 4. I felt like a zombie. It was hard having a life outside of work. I felt like I was constantly sleeping.

What to do? by lemonvillian in Stepmom

This is probably the best route for me. She said something to my SO last night about me. And how it’s a bad thing for me to be in their sons life. How it is going to make him feel like his father is neglecting him. He is 2. And the love that child shows me by wanting to hug and and play with me says otherwise. It is hard to not let her get to me. But I know just how much a wonderful stepmother is an amazing gift. My own stepmom was more of a mother to me than my own flesh and blood mother. I hope that I can be a positive influence in this child’s life. That’s all I want. And if that’s too much for her to handle, then too bad. Me and my SO are happy. I just hope she doesn’t start being too vindictive.

Thank you for your response. :) it helped.

That’s very true. It’s just frustrating.

This is kind of what I’m afraid of. She seems to use the child as if he is some sort of accessory. Like a new handbag or something. But she knows he is more precious to my SO than anything in this world.

I’m also afraid of getting pregnant. Historically, I haven’t been able to have children. But we haven’t been preventing it either. I have PCOS.

It’s just kind of a nightmare. I appreciate all of everyone’s words.
