Evil step daughter! iin?

Okay so heres my story...
I got with an amazing man! We had a beautiful daughter. But he has a very rude, disrespectful 16 year old. That he has full custody of. She has major issues and I have done everything in my power to make this relationship with her work. Unfortunately I am getting fed up with her. Tiny example: I ask her to lower the tv cause the baby is sleeping... I get an attitude and get talked back at. Her dad works at night. So Im stuck with her from when she gets home from school till night.
She is driving us crazy! I hate to say this but I cant stand her! You can tell she loves her sister. But I just cant trust her either. I just get that motherly worry when she's alone with her.
She steals from me. And I now have to lock my bedroom door. Its ridiculous how I have to live. Her father is fed up with her also. We count the days that she graduates high school so we can live our lives. I run out the house when I see its almost that time she's coming home from school. So I wont have to deal with her....
She is ruining our relationship. I am at the point of leaving him. My heart tells me to stay cause we are so good together and we get along so well when she's not around. But my mind says" Run Bitch Run!"

What should I do? Am I going crazy?!?!?! Is this normal?

    Don't leave your man. Learn from the evil Queen from Snow White. Poisoned apples!

  • I have had 2 step fathers and now my mom currently has a boyfriend that lives with us. Number 1 thing, don't ever try to be her mom, it is the worst possible thing to do. You have no right to come into her life and boss her around, that's how I feel and that's how she probably feels. I'm not saying you do that but seriously don't do it because she will hate you so much. Distance yourself from her and just assure her all you want to be to her is a friend nothing more. She only has about 2 years left so it won't be too long until she'll be an adult. Maybe just try talking to her to see why she does hate you, and be open minded about it.

    Honestly? You should really consider boarding school. If she's really as much of a hack as you say she is, she really has no business enjoying the benefits of living with you and your husband.

    Get her help. Send her to a hospital. Kick her out. Put her in jail for a week. She will straighten up. But don't leave him. W

      She is just a teenager!! We all were teenagers once, remember!??? How would it feel in your teenage years to not be trusted by your dad and not having her own mother around and having to put up with someone else for the sake of that!

    Have you tried finding common ground? Something you both enjoy. Whether it's a TV programme, music, food. Anything to bring the barriers down a little while not talking about her or her problems, or you and your problems with her.

    I don't expect it's easy but I wonder whether you can build some trust. She's probably quite threatened by you. Some woman has taken her father's love, and she isn't even her mother. She's in a house where everyone seems to hate her and people don't trust her. It must be fairly miserable for her, and I can understand why she'd react.

    Isn't the key thing to stop her feeling like this about the situation?

    Don't let that kid affect your relationship with your man, especially since you have a baby together. Leaving him would be selfish. It's only like, two more years.

    Your stepdaughter has issues. It's understandable that she doesn't want a replacement 'mom' at her age; I know I wouldn't have if my parents had split back then, so don't try to present yourself as her mother, but she DOES have to get used to the idea that with her mom no longer around, her dad isn't just going to stay lonely for her convenience.

    I say stick it out, but get her father to find her some counseling or something; this attitude WILL harm her later in life and you will NOT be the only one she holds it towards.

    I think she's old enough for you NOT to try to boss / mother her. If I were you, I'd treat her more like a friend to get her onside and force her dad to speak to her first when he comes home. This would make her feel a little valued instead of an outsider.

    Stay with your husband, she will be gone soon enough. Concentrate on your baby!

    Also she has never apologized. She is a spoiled rotten entitled brat.

    I have an evil SD. While it is true they grow up they are never really gone. She is in her 20s now and she is still horrible. I hate her. Always yelling at me for no reason. I finally told my husband that I could no longer be around her. It has been about 2 yrs now. He was great at making excuses for her bad behavior.

    I feel for you, from my own experience, it never gets better. She will always be his daughter, and she will always dislike you. There is not much that you can do about it.

    It's normal, I have a step sister who is the exact same way.

    She treats my mother like crap, steals, spreads rumors and tried her hardest to make everyone in the houses life miserable.

    The only difference I can see is my step father is aware of all of this but refuses to do much about it.

    Evil step daughters are common, I believe it can be spurred by jealousy. Some have the whole 'he's mine and no other can have him' factor. They don't want anyone stealing their daddy.

    nothing is worse than half assing anything, do something but do it to its fullest. Personally my parents did the eye for an eye thing w/ me im 25, moved out fireman/insurance salesman with respect for my parents. I'm talking she steals from you, do it back, teach her 1st hand what it feels like to be on the opposite end of the stick. The new generation of young punks are brought up thinking that there are no consequences, and that is why there are so many pure asshole young kids out there.

    She will become an adult soon enough and once she's ready, she will realize what a nasty bitch she has been and she will apologize to you.
