A Blessing and a Curse
First off, I must say that marrying DH is the best thing I've ever done in my life. He is a beautiful soul and in 12 days we will be at our 1 yr anniv. He backs me in pursuing my personal goals and basically is the best provider that I've ever been with. I quit my job in Oct 08 b/c I am in Nursing School (first yr to be completed May 21, 09). We have a wonderful relationship when it's just him and I. He gets SD4 and I feel like I start to lose it. From the moment I know she's coming til the moment she walks out of the door I am irritated, nasty, have a headache, don't want to be affectionate with DH (he can't kiss me, barely can touch me). We get into arguments that are never a factor when she is not here, and basically I question everything that DH and I have.
I know that he wants to spend time with her as he only really see her once a month...but do I stop existing when she get here. I have a hard time interacting with her because I really have no desire to do so. I don't want to be a stepmother, I don't want to take care of BM child and I simply can't be fake about it. I've prayed to God, cried out to my husband, discussed it until my face was blue...but nothing changes about my attitude.
I hate that he has to pay $1200 a month in CS for both Skids. I hate that he still has to feed them when they come here, and the fact that he still buys them stuff when they are here. I hate that the BM of SD4 is allowed to be a leach...I basically hate the fact the Skids and BMs exist. I really don't feel bad about the way that I feel...But I know my relationship w/ Skids is hurting DH.
I just really feel that after 2.5 yrs of dating and 1 yr of marriage and my feelings have never changed...they probably never will...Just had to vent.

Let me just say that I have been with my husband for 4 years and I also feel EXACTLY how you feel! You describe my feelings to a T! I feel as though I am bipolar!
When my ss7 is not around, I love life! But when the weekend nears, I start to feel sick to my stomach, bitchy, irritable, and I try to think of things I can do to avoid being around him.
Bipolar
This the exact word that describes me when Skids are in my home.
Welcome
this site is great for venting. I feel much the say way. I resent SD and BM and after 5.5 years realize I always will. Life is wonderful at long as it isn't EOW visits or CS drama- then we fight about things that usually mean nothing.
I too get tired of footing the bill for everything and then watching BF buy more stuff for SD when she visits.
