Ok, here's a man's perspective. First I couldn't read the whole thing. I was laughing too hard. The life of a homewrecker is soooo hard.
The first two daughters refused to meet her. I give her mad props here because she has "some sympathy with this".
She doesn't quite understand the dynamic between the father and his daughters. I didn't read the whole whateveryacallit. So I don't know if it eventually dawns on her that he's over compensating for ruining their lives by marrying a homewrecker and making their mother feel old, ugly and useless. The only good thing here is that I'm pretty sure she'll feel that way again when he leaves her for a younger woman, or tries to escape her grasp and go back to his original wife who will, hopefully, spit in his face.
I don't even get what he sees in her. A guy leaving his wife for say... Lucy Pinder would be almost completely understandable, but this ummm... (I got a time out for using the word in the JA thread once so I'll just let it go there.) is completely unexplainable. She's not that pretty, she's not that bright, and she's a *advertiser censored* <-------- sorry time me out. I couldn't help it. :banghead:
So the first thing her new beu should have bought her behind his wife's back is a clue. It would have been better if he bought one they could share. JMO
I didn't know where to place this. But I found it outrageous. What do you all think? This is a woman's account of what it's like to be a second wife, and what she expects from her husband and step kids and how the kids make her wild with jealousy:

Well, I guess I just weighed in above. :seeya:
Bombshell lady, he had a life before he met you. What's she gonna do when he has grandchildren? she is delusional, very controlling.
The fact that in his own home he can't speak to his children freely on the phone and to complain about how he interacts with his children. Imo he will begin to despise her.
Remember he was married when he met her, she should be worried about that little tidbit, he can meet someone else while married to her. Interesting in the pic her furniture all matched and his vest match the furniture and she matches him. I would wager that he could careless about how she interacts with her child. Middle age should be drama free, not living with this lady.

'Nuff said.
is it just me or does she come across as my daughter and i are his family and his kids are just annoying guests in HER house?
The kids don't live in their house from what it sounds like. Maybe it's because I didn't read far enough, but the older ones sound like they are independent and the 16 year old seems like she's living with her mother. I was laughing so hard I was afraid the neighbors would call the cops about a disturbance. I'll try again and see if I can stifle it.
It seems to me that she's upset that he has any contact at all with them and that he parents much differently. After all a Stalinist approach to parenting beats the hell out of a "left leaning liberal" type parenting job. After all who doesn't have respect for what Stalin was able to do for the Soviet Union? Seriously? Anyone? Oh wait, my sixty some odd year old Russian neighbor might not have respect for that. I don't know that for a fact, I'm just guessing.
Well anyway, back to slog on, hopefully quietly. :laughcry:
