i hate family fights.

and i try so hard not to get involved or have any feelings one way or another and it never ever works.

i can't wait to completely move out. when i'm away at school, it's good. but i'm still attached at home in the summer. i need an apartment.

I hate family fights! I'm not into confrontations at all. There are always two sides to every story too. I don't know your particular circumstance or why your mom and stepdad are fighting. Its hard to sit back and not get involved..but I hope things get better for you, your mom and stepdad. If their relationship ends with divorce..perhaps its something they both need. Theres a lot of emotional issues at stake and I hope for their sakes and for yours that they can get through this.

I don't think throwing things at your mom would help the situation. And why YOUR lamp? Maybe its for the best if he does leave if he's throwing things at your mom and making statements like that. I'm not advocating anything..just saying that if I was on the receiving end of having something thrown at me..there would be hell to pay.

i kind of want them to get divorced, but it's not about what i want haha. i never really cared much for my step dad, there's no relationship there. he's just a dude who lives in my house.

i don't know. my mom said she called a lawyer this morning. we'll see what happens. i'm not emotional about it at all. i'm like, completely detached from it. my step brother is really upset, my sister is really upset, and i....i could care less.

i guess i'm more f***** up than i thought hahahaa. who knows.

My mother doesn't stay mad at anyone for very long usually. Our fights always happen like this:
"Your pants are dirty, give them to me so I can wash them."
"Mom, I'm wearing them right now."
"GIVE ME THEM RIGHT THIS F****** MINUTE, THEY HAVE STAINS."
"It's just dust, not stains..."
"Do I look like one of your friends? Don't talk to me like that, give me those pants."
"No, what the hell?"
"ROAR ROAR ROAR YOU MAKE ME SO MAD ROAR."
*both exit room*
Five minutes later...
"What do you want for dinner? Chicken or pork steak? Can you get this off the top shelf? OMG Weeds is on tonight."

O.O

Everyone handles things differently, I don't think that you're any more f***** up than the next person.

I honestly don't get the whole issue with divorce. If you had a good relationship with your step father (I see you don't really, but just for sake of argument) , then he'd still be around to see/hang out with. Just because you do not live with someone and see them all the time doesn't mean that they are out of your life.

Well what ever happens just be there for your mom and support her decisions whatever they may be. Its hard coping with relationships. Theres so many emotional issues involved. Your not F'd up! Its hard for YOU to be in the middle of all of this even though you say your not really upset. You care about your sister and step brother too. I hope things get better for you and your family.

It was a long time ago now but I still remember the day we moved out of our stepfather's house. My mother had had enough of his womanizing and s***. Plus he treated my sisters and I like second class citizens and was always telling my mother what brats we were. The day we left he told my sister Erika and me that it was all our fault. What an a******. I hated his guts. Moving out was one of the best days of my life at that point.

His own kids were pretty messed up too. One of my stepbrothers went to jail for a few years for armed robbery and the rest of his kids moved down to Florida with their mother to get away from him.
