Happy to say I was wrong

[justice]

Well the stepson has now been here nearly a week and no problems. He's very sweet to me and cleans up his room and does the dishes and takes out the trash without having to be asked. Yesterday, the three of us were sitting around talking and he told his dad "No wonder Justice wants to leave you, you treat her like s(*t!" I was in shock. But I couldn't help wanting to smile. He told H he should pick up his dirty clothes so I don't have to do it because when I just get home from work I'm tired and shouldn't have to do a thing. I was just dumbfounded. I'm so glad I was wrong but still think H should have at least talked to me about the kid coming to live here. It's kind of wierd but I still get a strange feeling H is hiding something from me regarding other women. Maybe it's just me, I don't know. Gut feelings again. It isn't the original OW. She has moved to Canada or so I'm told by mutual aquaintances. I couldn't be happier for that. I don't know what to feel about my instinct telling me that something is going on, don't know if I'm right or not but it is worrying me. Maybe I'm just paranoid but there are still times where he seems like he did back when the A with OW was going on and I'm wondering if maybe there isn't another one in the works. I sure hope not because if it's true then this time I won't stick around for it. I've been hurt enough and will not put up with it anymore. I just hate the going into "detect" mode again, I need some peace now and some healing time. Oh well thats my update for now.

maybe the kid is sensitive to your situation because he understands what a shxthead his dad is, and that you've got to put up with dad's treatment (whatever that may be) because you're married to him. Which, even if it is a surprise to find a kid in your home one day, is pretty sweet because at a young age he's learning how to be perceptive to other people's feelings/needs ... you know, pretty much in training for how to be a decent SO to some girl.
