I have hated him since my mother married him 32 years ago. Now she is gone and he is married to another. I feel sorry for her. She was dumb for marrying him though. I would have warned her if I had known her. She went and married him before even getting to know him. She probably felt sorry for him but she never should have. He doesn’t deserve sympathy. He is the biggest bastard I have ever known. One of the last things my mother said before she passed was how sorry she was that she made me put up with the asshole.
Now he is old and sick. I am glad. I hope he suffers to his dying day like he made me suffer for 12 years of my life.
I have the same situation hating my Stepfather and family and can’t wait until they are old and suffer the way they made me suffer…I have actually told them that.
I’ve been a step dad for 30 years. I’m really very sad you guys feel this way.
Most step parents try their best, but parenting is a hard job and takes a long time and motivation to learn.
But, I understand how you feel. I hated my grandfather and my uncle for over 50 years. I moved 2,000 miles to get away with them. my dislike of them consumed many years of my life.
I hope you find some peace in your own hearts and can become the kind of parents that you wish you had growing up.
best wishes,
PS: Each of you wanted to see him suffering in his old age. Yes, old age does bring it’s own suffering – for everyone, good or bad.
