I play video games with my son. I am not into sports. I am a single parent. I have a son. I am not married/with his dad. I don't find much time for myself and I don't have a lot of friends.
I am 40 years old. I do not coexist well with my husband. I have 2 sons, one is called Dunc. I have a stepson who lives in my basement. I do not know much about hockey ball. I need friends. I argue with my husband. I am the only mother he knows. I met my husband at a club.  I'm a gold digger.
Are things any better with your stepson and husband? Not at all. Lately they've been ganging up on me and arguing about trivial things. I left the light on in the hallway and they both threw a fit about it. Sometimes I wish I was the one who lived in the basement. How are things you with and your boy? Are you two getting along? That sounds like it would be exhausting to live with! I'm sorry things have been rough, feel free to call me anytime if you need to vent about it. Things are good with us, basically the same. We started a new quest game recently that he likes. Thank you so much, I really appreciate that. We should go grab a bite to eat this weekend. Everyone in the house will be gone and I'll finally have time to myself without someone nagging at me. You can bring your son if you'd like! I know it must be hard to find someone to watch him so you can get away for a bit.  This weekend would be great, thanks! I'd love to get out of the house, and I'm sure my son would, too. He really enjoyed playing in your backyard with your boys last time. Would you like to watch a movie, too? I have some good ones downloaded. Sure! They come home midday Sunday, would that be a good time for you? Hopefully my husband stays out later than he said he would. He usually does, I don't trust a thing he says. But that just means more time for you and me! That sounds good. We'll bring some KFC for any easy lunch for the boys, and maybe you an I can have a salad or something (though I wouldn't say no to a chicken tender on the side). Have you thought anymore about how you might get some financial independence from your husband? I just hate to think of you feeling trapped. Oh my gosh, you are heaven sent! That sounds perfect. Honestly, I have been thinking about finding my own job and a way to support myself and my son independently, but every time I try I get really discouraged. My husband and I argue about it all the time, he thinks I'm acting ungrateful by looking for a job! I feel trapped. How do you do it as a single parent? I can't imagine how difficult it must be to balance everything life throws at you with no help.
