PURESUGAR
The difference is, my wife does not want to be a part of my kids' lives. She has even suggested I get DNA tests done on them to make sure they are mine. When I pick them up on my ONE DAY with them, she jumps in her car and takes our daughter to her mother's house.
As for your situation, it's terrible that your boyfriend doesn't include you in his child's life. You have the right to resent him for that, and I know it's hard to not resent his child, too, but it's a natural reaction. Another thing: Try hard to listen to his little stories about his kids. You may not think it means much, but that's his way of reaching out to you. I know how frustrating it can be to tell your wife about something funny or interesting your child did, only to see her roll her eyes. It hurts, man. My wife always gets a constipated look on her face when I talk about my other kids, and I know she's not the least bit interested, but if she ever acted like she was, it would really make me feel good.
