boyfriend help: My Mum has got a new boyfriend and I’m just starting to feel left out. - Help.com



This post left anonymously

My Mum has got a new boyfriend and I’m just starting to feel left out.

She’s always doing loads of stuff for him, and she dosen’t pay much attention to me. I tried telling her how I’m feeling but it just ended up with the problem getting worse. I can never get a minute alone with her to talk. For the last 2 weeks, I’ve just cried non stop without her knowing. Please help!

Well… firstly, how old are you?

I kinda know how you feel. My mom has just started dating again and hasnt been without the guy for days straight now. But it doesnt bother me.. im happy shes finally back out there.

I’m only 15, by the way. To be honest, I don’t mind my Mum’s boyfriend but I just feel like I don’t exist in the house no more. I tried telling my mum, but she just isn’t interested. What do you think I should do?

How long has your mom and her bf been together? Is she still in her puppy love stage? And what about her bf? Do you talk to him? Maybe you could talk to him and tell him your feeling ignored.

why dont you tell them you want to go out with them sometimes too? Are you left alone when she goes out? Do you have any friends to hang with while she is with him?

I know it hurts 4 mum to be involved in r/ship with another man especially if not ur dad. But sometimes life may dictate so, are your parents divorced? I think you may be experiencing a feeling of jealous! Why your Mum and dad are not 2gether?. I was also hurt when my dad was dating another woman and later my parents seperated. Try to explain to your mom how you feel, but always respect her coz she is your mom. Be calm but always pointing at truth from your heart.
U’re loved

:( im in the same situation…. they got mrried last year and its like everything she does is for him.

and its all the small thing that ad up, like says im talkin to her shell ask him for a cup of tea n not even think about me.. or if were going out she tell hi how smart he looks n wont say nething me me..

hes rich too, but really tight, so tight hes a hippocrit about other people beeing tight.

im not even like that but when it comes to the piont when im living with him and hes basicly taken my mum and he cant even support something i want to do, theres something wrong.

i dont want to speak to him about it or my mum becaus ei fear them brkaking up. and i cant bare to see my mum like that again seen it to many times..

feels like im in a trap.

****!
