With so many new people coming into this forum lately I thought I would make a quick post about how things are in here...
1. This is just an online forum to begin with- people will post what they want, how they want and they do. A lot of us are either looking for advice or just to vent. We're not bad people by any means.
2. Not all of us hate our step kids. Like I mentioned above- this is an online forum- we come here mostly to vent and get our frustrations out with other people who are in similar situations. Just because you read one post where it's venting about our step kids doesn't mean we are horrible step parents. No different than venting to our moms or our girlfriends.
3- We are here to offer advice or are seeking advice. There's no reason to be rude when offering some, most people in here understand not everyone is going to agree with them 100% but that doesn't mean you need to attack anyone either.
4- If you honestly don't like what someone has posted move on, no need to start unnecessary drama, we have enough of that going on in our everyday lives.
5- A lot of us have horrible hex's and that's the main reason for so many problems within our blended families. If you've been blessed with a good hex consider yourself lucky, 95% of us would like to trade with you.
6- If you do read a post from someone that you don't agree with, look at their previous posts and you will understand their situation a lot better. It gives you the bigger picture and hopefully will change your mind about how you feel about their particular post.
7- Lastly, like I mentioned above most of us get along great most of the time and we like it that way. Please don't start attacking others in here or people will report you. We're all just trying to make the best of our situations and get/give some advice. :)

OT- what does this look like? I just got off the phone with the on call dr because ds has this on his face only these spots he has a fever 99.8 (I know its low but he gets a lot of fevers and anything over 99.5 I have to record for the dr) his legs, head, and belly hurt and his eyes are being light sensitive. Dr. Thinks its an allergic reation but nothing has changed. I gave him benedryl like she said. Now ill be up all night worrying.

Just curious as to what were you alls experiences meeting HEX for the first time.
I haven't met her yet but if I ever do it will most likely be accidental.
Also, I do delete my posts after a while so feel free to express things you might regret later.

So and i have been going through a ruff patch for awhile now and today i realized im falling out of love with him. Lately it feels like we are both going through the motions of everyday life. Im feeling like he doesnt know if he loves me anymore either because lately he has been making comments like i would be better off without him in my life. These comments make me feel like he is trying to get me to be the one to leave first so he isnt the bad guy. Im just so confused on how to deal with this.
