When you marry a person who has children, you take them on as a package.I know from experience how difficult a step family can be,but you have to make sacrfices.At 13 the boy could be very confused about his possition in the family and probably finds you hard to accept as a "Motherly" figure.
Get your husband to spend quality time with the boy and also to explain to the Lad that realy he is very lucky as he has two Mums.
It is very distressing for you as he probably plays you against your husband,i had all of this,however with time the situation does get better. Our two are 17 and 24years old now and were all the best of friends.
Hope this helps.
My husband and I have been having really bad arguments. We have two children under two years old, I am just finishing up my period of maternity leave.
He frequently says things in a nasty manner and nasty tone of voice. He says I don't tell him when things are bothering me but I try and I can't get his attention. I have to always repeat things twice maybe three times so that I just don't bother trying to tell him things now. Since we married, I have nearly tripled the amount of debt I have, I can't entirely blame him but I never had this problem before we married, I actually worked in a credit control company but now I am on the other end with people phoning me about debts. When we are having the argument, he just tells me I am behaving like a child so that's how he will speak to me, it really hurts my feelings and I have no confidence. I do things in the house, keeping the washing up to date and the dishes and doing ironing, even the hoovering which he said was his task. He then complains and criticises the things I haven't managed to do whilst looking after the two little ones and hardly ever praises the things I have done. He does not willingly help unless prompted and uses the fact that he works as excuses to not do anything. But he still manages to spend time doing things in his garden or spending hours playing computer games on the laptop he has or watching films. Whenever I challenge him about his behaviour towards me, he always has the excuse ready that he is sorry but it is because he is tired. Yet he stays up late as I said playing games and watching tv.
I am feeling really quite at the end of my tether and have been feeling suicidal as I don't think I can cope with this anymore. I am really feeling very desperate.
My ex cheated on me with a woman who knew he was married. There relionship is over now, it was all about sex, the same as yours. Women like you make me sick, its because of people like you the divorce rate is so high, all I hope is that one day you meet someone you truely love (and believe me its not this married guy thats just lust), and he does to you what you have done to his wife, only fairs fair.
if you only see him twice a week, whats the point? it sounds like he doesnt want any commitment at all. my advice would be, move on!
dating a married man! selfish horrible woman. people like you need a slap. what goes around comes around my dear!
