After the second divorce that person needs to seriously consider whether they are unmarriable.

I wouldn't have that kind of patience either tbf.

Also factor in what ever bs the dad could be feeding the kid behind their back. Most divorced people I've known have tried to use the kid in some way to hurt the other parent. It's disgusting.

My possibly controversial take is that I don't think mentally ill, unstable or immature people should have kids.

That's never stopped you before.

I think it’s pretty reasonable to forgive yourself

Yes it has.

What's the worst that can happen?

Pls no

I don't know if anything happened after I logged off, but I don't feel like anything written by me, Lucem and OH when I was online was more than just a bit of goofing around.

Not all stepparents are bad and have rocky relationships with the bio kids. I've met a few that were pretty awesome. Though, the key word there being "few." I definitely don't think it's impossible, just somewhat uncommon or unlikely. Though then again, what the **** do I know?? I don't have kids and rarely date anymore.

I want to get back to my journal but I’m still kind of thinking about what to write this year.

Start telling funny/crazy/sexy music-related anecdotes.
