so my s/o and i broke up... which obviously means i have no step-parent situations (not that i ever was legally a step-parent). the break up had nothing to do with kids or ex's etc. just stresses that each of have going on in our personal lives.
i will still be around here, i do still have kids and an ex.... but we are thinking about trying to work things out again... not sure just yet.
so for those who told me it wouldnt last, you win, lol! but not for any of the reasons you might think.
his dad was given 6 months to live and he is beside himself and taking out his anger and frustration over that on me (not physically) - my son is getting ready to deploy and i have become withdrawn, which he took personally, despite me explaining what is going on. it was the stress test and we failed miserably. it seems like each of us is so caught up in our own situation and unable to be there for the other.
it is what it is.
I'm sorry to hear that. :(
Things happen for a reason (I hate that saying, truly), so maybe this is for the best for both of you. Maybe you'll work it out later, maybe you'll both find other people that are better for you.
Hugs.
I'm sorry for your pain. Be good to yourself.
And no one is going to do a "victory dance" over this. All of us have had our own trials and troubles. Life is what it is and step situations are so hard. And sometimes they just don't last.
((hugs))
I'm sorry.
don't leave the group though. Your experience is valuable and can help others.
Jealousy, confusion, frustration- oh joy...
