Little by little

I’ve noticed a huge change in my relationship with my SD. With her going to school and not home all day everyday our relationship has thrived. Yes I still have moments where I can’t stand her, but those are happening less and less. She might still drive me crazy on the daily, but I can see us trying to get along better with each other. I’m not instantly pissed off when she does something most of the time anymore. I can actually enjoy her company for longer periods of time. I’m not sure if it’s her growing up or if it’s because SO has stopped catering to her as much. Whatever it is though I’m so grateful. I may never get to the point of cuddling the way SO wants but we have come such a long way and I’m so proud of both of us. Thank you guys for support I don’t think I could have gotten this far with out it!

Probably it's just her being in school all day - you don't have to deal with her as much.

Are you still giving her pain medications for her tooth ache? Maybe she is easier to get along

with when she is not in pain. Sorry,  I just can't get over the fact that your SO wouldn't make sure his

daughter got to the dentist to get some relief from her pain - if you hadn't taken her, she would still be hurting.
