We were all supposed to go the State Fair next Saturday. H, me, girls and grandma & grandpa (my stepdad). I spoke to my mother today about the tickets and she tells me that they can't go. After a bunch of lame excuses, it comes out that my stepdad is not ready to see my H. Keep in mind they don't even know about the affair, just the separation.
My girls had the best time with Grandma & Grandpa at the fair last year and are looking forward to it again. I spoke to my stepdad and he tells he can't do it. He's not capable of faking it with H. There was never any falling out or anything like that with them. My mother tells me that Stepdad had his feelings hurt and I should see it from his point of view. I was so taken aback. This isn't about him! I can't believe that crap. I told him that the only victims here are the girls. Ughh. Why are people so selfish?!
To top it all off, my mother will be away for Thanksgiving so I am doing Thanksgiving here. H is coming too. I went for bust today and asked stepdad, "does that mean you're not coming for Thanksgiving either?" He replies, "If H is going than no". I said, "good to know". WTF is the matter with people?!
Keep in mind, my own father was accepting of H and even spent time with him when he was visiting.
