Whisper: It’s one of the problems for sure, dealing with the father is not as easy as I thought, but as far as the comparison, you feel that way when you first get married, after a while it barely crosses your mind as people are different, and it will make it harder for you to deal with. My wished for you is to find a guys with no package so you can start your life normally :) Afaf: Thank you very much for the support, I have my ups and downs, I’m sure you understand, it takes time, but I know deep in my heart that things will be fine eventually.

I can't tell you to ignore the OH's and the annoying questions, but at the end of day filter what matters, your husband and your stepson. And I'm very sure they love you dearly. I don't know how to make you feel better, I don't know how to say this: but you are the type of person whom I would trust with my own kids. Dear “not a stepmom”

Hundreds of women subscribe to our magazine because they feel exactly the same way. We have a lot of work to do in changing society and the lack of understanding and awareness about stepparenting. And Disney? Don't even get us started. Best wishes to you. Keep up the hard work. Well said. Hundreds of women subscribe to our magazine because they feel exactly the same way.
