LeniA Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 My future step brother Tim and I patched things up finally tonight.We had an argument over something 3 weeks ago and he called me a snob.I felt hurt inside and he knew it.My mom,she knows I am not a snob and saw I was hurting inside.She tried to get me to talk about it after it happened and didn't want to at first.Finally talked to her about it on Saturday night.Said something has to be resolved.Tim and I have our issues still,don't see eye to eye on things sometimes.Finally we talked at my place and did admit what he did to me wasn't right 3 weeks ago.Said we need to work things out and he did man up on something.Looked at me and apologized to me for calling me a snob.I saw he ment it and forgave him.The next step is going to be one step at a time,working things out.My mom and future step dad are glad this is finally happening,they are getting married in December.Luckily mom knows of a good family therapist Tim and I can talk to.Luckily he is going to do it and glad he has listened.Mom and future step dad have seen we have communication problems,Tim and I both agree on it.Tim and I also see a barrier between us that needs to be broken.Even my future younger step sisters Elizabeth and Jill are glad we are going to work things out too.They had enough of it.

Wiseman2 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) You don't really need to be friends with, agree with or have debates with your mom's BFs kids All you need to do is respect each other and respect your family. Your mother is your confidant but biased, of course. Is it possible to live with your father if your mother plans to move her BFs clan into your house? The issue isn't the future step siblings. It's that they resent your mother and you as much as you resent them. They are probably struggling also with their parents divorce and their dad dating.
