So I been a step father. To my two stepsons for ten years.i have great relationships with both boys. But at the moment both boys and mom are staying at grandmas and I with my family . There bilogilcal. Father just got of prison he was there for ten years . . And my partner suddenly has become distant and is behaving differently and they basically been together. Evryday. Probably. About. 75% out the entire time hes been out. I have. Maby seen her about 15% and the boys 5,% . So then biological dad starts texting and telling me about. How. Shes unhappy and. I needed to start making here happy. And. How he appreciated how well I took care of the boys and i responded. Nicely. And then another text he starts with how he is gonna. Be at grandmas. House and doesnt have anywhere else to Take the boys. Until he gets on his. Feet So not to be offended. So. I want to know how others step father might react to this. And any advice related to this type of situation thank you
I would say that the first step is to sort out what is happening with your partner, as everything will flow from that.
I'd agree with @actd below. Take some time to have a heart-to-heart conversation with your partner to understand where her heart is and how she sees things working out.
Wishing you all the best. _/\_
