Step children situation

:jawdrop: My step daughter has never liked me and I have made every attempt to like this young lady. Well her and my daughter were friends during high school and they are the responsible for introducing me to my husband. My husbands daughter eventually started a gay relationship with my niece. My step daughter thought that her father and I were just going to fool around and did not realize that we would fall in love and get married. She recented that totally because it was too close for comfort for her. She is sleeping with my niece and the father of her son. Of course I would find out all of her deception because I am with her father. She is a beautiful young lady with a scorn heart. She has no respect for peoples feelings and is a very deceptive individual. She works for my family business and in a sly way userps my authority as the manager. I do not have a personal relationship with her but business and try with everything in my power to seperate the two. I don't want to hinder her relationship with her father but do not want to continue to deal with this. In all honesty, I do not care for her but am tied due to my marriage. I pray about this situation but would like some advice.

I gather from your biography that SD is 23. I am assuming she does not live with you. However, the fact that she works with you is the awkward bit, otherwise you could just ignore her behaviour. You do not say what role your DH has in the family business, but I would just try and keep things on a very formal, professional footing when you have to have contact with her for work. Deal with her as with any other employee who usurps your managerial authority.
Her sex life sounds very complicated, but there is no reason for you or your DH to even acknowledge this - she is an adult and has responsibilty for her own relationships. Given that she is your SD, keep things very cool between you, and have a minimum of contact possible outside the workplace.
