    A woman kicked her boyfriend and his daughter out of the house for a seemingly shallow reason.

    2022-10-18

    Dating someone with children may be challenging for anyone, regardless of their feelings about children or their own parenting status. Extremely, unreasonably, unimaginably challenging.

    When you start dating someone who has children, you need to create place in your life not only for your new partner's schedule but also for the schedules (and personalities) of the children that they have.

    But what are the things you're willing to sacrifice for the sake of the relationship and getting along with your partner's kid?

    This issue was highlighted in one online post in which the woman claimed she got tired of her boyfriend's daughter destroying things around her house.

    Author starts her post by saying, about a year and a half ago, she started dating this guy. He has a daughter named "Chrissy" who is 9 years old (almost 10). While the author says she also has a son who is 11 years old. Three months ago, they met each other's kids, and last month, her boyfriend and his daughter started spending the weekends at the author's house.

    "It's been a super hard adjustment for me especially. The kids get along for the most part but I'm just having a really hard time." According to the author
    "My son has always been a fairly good kid and hardly ever given me issues. He never drew on walls or broke anything of importance or talked back (aside from occasionally, obviously, no kid is perfect) and he was always super quick to ask permission to touch my stuff. I personally think I lucked out and I knew that not all kids were as well behaved as my child but I wasn't ready, I don't think. I'm just overwhelmed." She added

    And since her boyfriend and his daughter have been doing weekend visits in their house, Chrissy stays in the author's guest room.

    "she has destroyed a lot. Rips holes in the mattress and then says they were already there (they weren't), draws on the walls and windowsill with make up and marker, she even takes my new feminine pads to her room and will cut them up. She has put a hole in my wall and said it was already there. I can buy a brand new thing of shampoo and conditioner and it's 100% gone and in the trash by the end of her shower, which lasts 45 minutes every single time. She stomps her feet and slams doors when we have to speak to her and knocks things off the walls. She is generally a good kid but she is so f*cking destructive." Auhor said

    But that's not the ultimate.

    What really sets her off was when Chrissy came to her house one weekend with her father while her son was seeing his father and she was asked into the office to conduct a signing that would only take about an hour at most.

    So apparently she just up and left them there. Chrissy had all of her photo albums spread out on the kitchen table when she returned, and she was busy removing the people and other elements from the pictures before gluing them into a "scrapbook."

    "Photos that I cannot get back, as they were printed out YEARS ago when I was in foster care and those were the only copies I had. Photos of my dead friend as well." Author said.

    She then went outside to where her boyfriend was on the phone and told him that they needed to leave immediately.

    "I explained the situation and told him I was done. Those photos, as stupid as it may be, were a huge part of my childhood and now they are destroyed. I told him I was done speaking to him about his daughter destroying my sh*t and it was time to go."

    Now her BF thinks she's an a**hole for throwing a year and a half down the drain over some pictures.

    What do you think?
