Step-parent support group?
DH and I have only been married a short time (hence my being new to these boards), but we've been together for almost 5 years so I've felt like a step-parent for quite some time. I respect that I am "only" step-mom and have never tried to have the kids call me "mom" or come across as trying to take her place. Both the kids and DH are great and very supportive of my role, but of course his ex is another thing. I know DH gets very frustrated with her as well, so I feel bad taking some of my frustrations regarding her out on him too. Does anyone know if there is such thing as a step-parent support group locally that I can look into and be with other people who understand my situation? If not, anyone interested in helping me set one up?

My agency, Headway Emotional Health Services offers these classes https://headway.org/class_divorce_1947/. Sorry I suck at hyperlinks.
Nordke,
Sounds like you and I are in the same boat! I've been with DH for just two years, but otherwise your story sounds like mine. Message me if you're interested in talking, or venting!
