HAte to say this but I do not like my stepmother's behavior here in our house. It's like they are all unfair to me.. She ruined everything including my relationship to my dad, it's like she brainwash him and doesn't listen to me anymore.. My life was so nice before she arrive to my family.. She always create make up stories bout me and everything just to ruin my life, my dad's life, and everyone's life around. I want to save my dad from her but I don't know how.. When I was reviewing for the boards, I haven't feel their support which is what I really need at those crucial times of my life.. It's like my dad now doesn't care about me anymore and that saddens me a lot (In our culture, separation among parents and siblings are very hard and very different from other cultures like in the US).. I really hate her! And by the way, she is a gold digger, my dad didn't court her at all.. All my dad did was to tell every wealth and inherited lands and after a week they are married. Now my life is so messed up!

You would never able to conquer the wicked women for now at least. Because for now, everybody just see her in the right side and you in the wrong side. You have to prove to everybody that you are right and she was wrong, that way you can start to remove her existence in your family life. I believe in political ways to get what I want. I can be good to people even when I hate the people so much. I can smile even I actually hold the grudge in my heart. I can do that because I know that one day the revenge will come, and I would be the last to laugh. Just remember that confront your stepmom for now is a big mistake. All you get would be just another troubles.

That's right, confronting her now is a big no no especially that my dad is not here due to his work abroad. My relatives are all in my side and I am thankful that they really knew what is right. Thanks!

I think it is good to have your relatives support you. At least you still have your supporter, and you have their help to conquer the problems. I believe you would solve this problem very soon. And if you can't get rid of her, at least in some ways you can lessen her power to control everything in your home.

I am sorry you are going thru all this. Not all step-moms are like that. I watched my daughter go thru something similar with her dad and it was so hard. He got so caught up in this girl that he really didn't pay attention to her. My daughter blamed the lady but I blamed the dad for letting it happen. I am a single parent and there is no way that I would ever put any guy above my children and so I could not understand how he was letting this happen. he thought I was just jealous. I wasn't. I wanted my daughter to be close to her dad. At the same time I understood that he needed to have love in his life. Thing is, this woman wanted him all to herself and did not like sharing my daughter with him. he made the choice. As she grew older, she kind of gave up on him. She loves him and does see him from time to time but she saw it for what it was...he chose a girlfriend and let it become more important than his relationship with her. She is only 14 now and he is no longer seeing this girl but he is also not seeing much of his daughter. He gets upset and blames me...thinking I bad-mouth him. I don't at all. I would love to see them close. He lost connection with her and is too darn lame to do whatever it takes to make things right. She sees him about once a month if that. its all pretty sad. don't just blame the girlfriend. you may not want to blame dad but he could have made other choices.
