Boyfriend and family problems

Default profile image
Well first off I want to talk about my family.. My dad is a truck never really in town but when he is his busy messing around with women (that's my dad in a nutshell). My mom was and still is an emotional wreck. She has a boyfriend who doesn't work but just lives there with him to make her look good they don't even sleep on the same bed. She's never told me she loves me but then with my other sisters she will do anything for them. I have two daughters and she only lives 5 minutes away and never comes to visit them or me. It's still hard for me to accept that I have a family who doesn't care about me, so I tried to find family through my bf (not my childrens dad) I tried to be there for them, but my bf mom only cares about her grandson which is my bf son. She takes care of him while my bf ex only watches him every other weekend or so. Whatever they do it's on them I don't mind if his around or not if anything it helps me because my girls enjoy playing with him. My problem is I can't say anything if my bf ex doesn't come and pick up her son cause then that means I don't care about his son... I get left and told I'm basically a bad person cause I don't want his son around and I don't have my family to run to. I don't have anyone to talk to.. I tried therapy didn't help much.. I don't want to go back on anti-depression pill either. I just don't know how to be happy when I have no one to tell me they are proud of me. I'm only 25 and raised my girls on my own..live on my own and work full time.

Dear FOREVER2003, First of all I want to tell you that you are a creation of God and God always makes good things. Dont feel that you have no family. You have two sweet daughters who are your very own. They look up to you for support and help. And you do have an extended family a boyfriend, his mother and son too. How they behave is something you have no control over. Just do your duty and dont expect anything from them. I know this is easier said than done. Focus more on your two daughters, their education and upbringing. Give your boyfriend's son too equal attention. Remember even though he has a father and grandmother, he too needs a mother's love and only you can fill that void. Be the caring person you want others to be for you. Soon you will see that they just cant do without you. Keep smiling and be happy. May God bless you...:)
