Savor the last moment together?

BF gave me that "I know you are not happy, I can't do this to you and I can't do this to myself" talk again. This time he's like it's not fair to you, to me and to my kids. So I asked him, "Are we saying goodbye?" He said, "We have to, I can't live two different lives. You can't even go to a trip with them because you can't be in the car with them for 6 hours." But then he's still holding my hand, hugging me, kissing me and cuddling with me while watching TV like we are still together. He even asked me to go out for a walk and ice-cream after the talk.

Almost peaceful

It's approaching 5:30 pm so the day is almost over with. I am so looking forward to peace again. I have survived another weekend with the trolls, yay!!! BF had a glimpse of how "well-behaved" and "respectful" his kids are with un-flushed toilet with No. 2 in it. And I went out the deck saw the pillows on my loveseat were on the dirt. I was like, "wow, thanks, I cuddle them when I sit outside." So I washed them and told BF I was not going to put them outside again. You abused my things, you are not going to use them. Anyway, again, the day is almost over with.

Their weekend :(

A big thank you to all you guys who commented on my last blog! I think of leaving him over and over. The only reason I am still sticking around is because he's very loving towards me when we are alone with each other, nothing to do with his kids. He gets so defensive whenever I mentioned any improper behavior of his kids. I believe he has guilty dad syndrome, a lot of time he really is just letting his kids grow freely then parenting them. For me, I see them as roommates and I flat out told him that last night but I didn't tell him I honest don't like having roommates.

What next?

Finally last night we had a quiet talk, we were both calm so no drama there. I told him how I felt about the kids situation and why I acted the way I acted. Such as the door slamming, kitchen drawer slamming, toilet paper dangling on the floor, never pick up after themselves....etc, small things but frustration built up. He seemed to understand and willing to accept that there was nothing wrong with me feeling the way I felt. I said, "I don't know, maybe it will get better over time or..." He said, "You won't. It will drive me nuts.

Please do not criticize me

I feel bad and angry at the same time while the situation remains. I feel like a wicked person. I always wanted to be the blessing of the man I love and yet I have become a curse to him and him to me. BF kept saying his kids are well-behaved and polite and they are good kids. The truth is I don't care if they are good or bad, I simply don't want them around. I feel like my personal space is invaded and my peace is being disturbed. I just want them gone out of my sight and life forever.

Fight and not talking

Right now BF and I are in a bad place. The drama and fight started yesterday when his precious ones were here (duh!!!) When they are here, there are always tensions (on both sides) and irritations (on my side, not sure how they feel, not that I care). The fight got so bad that I am pondering leaving again and of course the "I am bending backward to make you happy" speech from him surfaced as well. And of course the "I love you but I would have to let you go if you are not happy here, just think about when or if you want to go" talk.

They are here before you - period.

Everything, everybody were here before you. Kinda like the new girl in school, if you don't fit in, you are the odd one out, the weirdo, the outcast; if you try to fit in, you are the competition, everyone who is already there thinks that you are trying to snatch their territory. So should you just suck it up until you become one of the "oldies"? Or you change school with your fingers crossed, hoping you can find one without mean girls?

**** Answer to some of you who are puzzled:

I know you are not happy here

We just had a huge fight minutes ago about the fire last night and about his kids that was wrong in my eyes but right in his and how hard he's been trying to please the BM. I don't know how much of his GDS I can take. At the end of the fight, there came his infamous comment, "I know you are not happy here. Just admit it, you know what you need to do." Well, it's his way to tell me to move out on my own accord because he won't tell me to since he's a nice guy. He used this line every single time we had a fight.

Fire burning at 2:47 am

I am about to explode. BF decided it was fun for his kids to build a fire in the backyard a few feet from the kitchen at 9 pm. He didn't mention it to me and I didn't even know it until I started to feel suffocated inside the house. So he said, "I will tell them to put it out." So I thought it was going to be out in a while. Duh!!! The fire still burning hot at almost 3 am. The kids are 11 and 12 and they are out there alone with a couple of neighbor kids with the fire and BF is asleep so tonight my eyes are really wide open to see how he discipline them.
