    on the other side of that fence, if you're interested in that perspective.

    Thanks, Here's the deal been with my husband for 5 yrs married for 4 of them knew he had a daughter when we decided to get married ( I have no children of my own ). She and I have a great relationship there's no problem there. the problem is we all get along great the ex is remarried to a great guy and we all get along great but I have just a small lil problem with just because we all get along doesn't mean we have to sit with them at school functions , stuff like that... At times I think that I'm being stupid about it. even though we do get along it is hard on me sometimes being around someone that my husband was married to for so long and had a child with. I mean is this wrong for me to feel this way sometimes ? I know it's great for the child to see us all together and getting along.. I don't know if I'm right or wrong for how I feel... And my step daughter is 16 now, don't know if this makes a difference.

    Just in-securities, a tad of jealousy that doesn't have to exsist.

    Both partners have moved on, him with you and her with the other man.

    The whole reason why you get along, is because, neither care for each other anymore in that way, they have moved on, you are part of that, he chose you.

    Yes, you do and should be together at functions, your step child has a Mother, as well as a step mother, both should be in the aquation i feel...

    From 11, 12 to 16, is from being a young lady to becoming a young woman.. Enjoy your relationship with her and with your new man.

    Imagine, if you all didn't get along?

    That would be worse.

    It's not "wrong" per se, it's how you feel. If you let it comsume you an dmess up things for the child, then it's wrong.

    we all have issues over our SO's previous partners in some form or another.

    just dont let it get the best of you...

    You all make sense especially with what you said Chandlers Wish, I have come to realize that I do get jealous and have in-securities. Don't know why. My husband doesn't do anything to make me feel this way, I just do. I so need to get over it. How to get over it is the other question. My step-daughter and I do have a great relationship. And her mom and I get along pretty well. And as for the stepdad and my husband they're buddys.

    Well, try be-friending her bit by bit, a little more... I am sure once you two get to know each other more then you will see her in a different light...
