Okay. Hmmm.. Well. I asked for opinion, and that's what I got. The kids aren't from broken homes per se, the SS was a fling thing, and me and H have been together since my eldest was 9 months old. United front?? I don't think so. I don't and won't submit to my children's feelings being...

How do the kids typically get along? I haven't seen them have any issues at all. Our SS rarely comes over, maybe once a month. They play together fine. Are they generally treated the same by the both of you ? I can't say because he isn't over enough. In my opinion my H is harder on my eldest...

I could use your feedback right now. We've just had a situation in our house, and I am looking for some opinions on it right now. My H has his son over right now, and he's the same age (11) as my eldest daughter. They play together a lot, she talks to him a lot. Well, apparently she was told...

I know it is. It is a very big deal. I remember how uncomfortable I was when my family fought. It does hurt a lot. No they weren't there for the whole thing. It's unfortunate. It's something that needs to be worked on, we're talking years of us communicating wrong, plus top it off with...

Thanks dmp, I appreciate it. Thanks for being "gentle" when you could have been snippy with me for being so with you. I'll think about all you said. Very good points. You are right, I can only work on myself....I can't focus on him. But I can focus on Him. I'll be thinking about what you...

BrBob, Thank you for your opinion and for it being kindly delivered :) Yes communication is a big problem for us, and it's something we are working on. it's getting better, but we regress sometimes, sadly. dmp--I'm sorry if my post came off snotty or defensive...I am a little. Defensive...

Okay, maybe I miscommunicated. So here is my attempt to clear it up. I feel like I'm getting a bad rep for some reason in the things you said. We had already passed the power steering fluid, and he said this as he was going in the other direction. Later on, he said by him saying We need...

Well, we went to church, but ended up coming home because we were late and wouldn't have been able to find seats. So we stop off at the grocery store, me, H, the kids, and my nephew. My H often walks really fast, and he's a lot bigger than me so I asked him to slow down. He did. Well we were...

Hey just to let you all know. I did have a talk with my husband and he was very receptive to my feelings this time around.

Your probably right, though I am weary of the situation. The beginning of our relationship was very rocky because of interference from her. Good points though. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the advice. I have let him know that I don't like it, and he thinks I'm being ridiculous. He says that he has to talk to her, that they have a kid together, but like I said.. It's excessive. Even greater for my personal sanity and space is the fact she is moving two blocks away...

I posted this on the WD board too, but would like some feedback from married ppl and/or men on their take on the situation. :scratch: Okay, well. I don't know:sigh: Here's the deal. My Dh has a kid with another woman from before we were together. And I don't like how much they talk...

I wish that were possible, but it isn't. My husband wants nothing to do with him, says he's nothing but trouble and he'd beat him up because he has disrespected him in the past. My husband doesn't mind holding grudges. Thanks for the advice, I appreciate the way that you word it so it's kind...

Well, here is the tricky situation I find myself in. My sister (actually she's an aunt, but I call my aunt's sister's because my grandma raised me) has a son, who is WAY out of control. I mean, WAY beyong the norm. There are other kids in my family who are doing some bad stuff, but not to...

Thank you for your response. I appreciate the advice you give, and it makes a lot of sense. What do I do if he doesn't WANT to get involved? I don't know how many times I've asked him to play a board game with us, or go to the park with us, and he rarely wants to do anything.
