Sorry, haven't been on here for months, no worthwhile reason just haven't
Then today after an awful falling out with DS I was trying to think who to rant to without dragging in more family members and realised I do have like minded people who can tell me how it is without emotional ties
So I'm going to vent to you (apologies in advance)
Well its a year now since DS met his online love, he was a stay at home lad who never went out and worked with his dad until very recently. I was so happy for him as he adored this lady and her 8 year old son
Within a few months they'd moved in together and we tried to make them part of the family, but...
She makes no effort to fit in to our ways, he won't help us around the farm even when asked, he wont visit on his own even if passing, he cancels on us because she needs him for something
It all sounds really petty but we feel we cant have a relationship with our son
The little boy is very demanding but we get along with him and he has accepted that if he's here he follows our rules
On the two occasions they've left him here for a few hours we've had fun and he's polite and engaging, until they come back!
Now she's pregnant, only a few weeks but I have a horrible feeling she's going to be the worlds worst pregnant person, DS cancelled again as poor girls got a cold and he needs to get home as she's too tired to look after the boy
Everytime we try to talk to them they instantly start the 'You don't like her' campaign
Ive told DS its him that's disappointed me but she keeps messaging that I'm trying to break them up
I'm really not, I just want a little of my sons affection
Am I being unreasonable?
