My husband & I have been together for 8 years married for 2. For the most part his ex has been the perfect ex, because she (MOST OF THE TIME) stays out of our business when it comes to the way I discipline her kids and my marriage to her ex. There has been a time or two that she has tried to be a typical ex and tried to cause some uneasy feelings for my husband and I but I don’t know if she was trying to do it on purpose or not.
I am around her kids more that she and my husband put together because I have freed up my schedule to make sure there kids had someone to take care of them (they both work all the time) and yes I sometimes feels like I am only a live-in- babysitter, and I’m doing it all on my own, but I love those kids like they where my own.
My problem is I don’t like people in my house when my husband or I is not there, and every time she comes to pick the kids up it’s always when I am getting ready to go to work (I always end up being late for work because I’m waiting on her) and my husband is already to gone to work. Their mother is a bar tender and is up pretty late so it is hard for her to get up that early and drive 45 minutes to our house and pick up the kids. So last week I called her when I was alone and explained to her how I felt, she was really understanding and sweet about it but this morning it all happened all over again, I was again an hour late for work and I could not show any anger because I don’t want the kids to think I was being mean to their mother, They don't understand and my husband will not do anything about it because he thinks I am trying to start trouble. I don’t know what to do. Please help!!!! ↓
