My parents seperated back when i was 4 and i havent seen him since untill late. My step dad is the man i call dad due to the fact he got everything for me he was the one who picked me up when i fell down and gave me a hug when relationships failed so yer step dad i wouldn't ever call him that he is my dad.
Of late i did deside to find my biological father and to my relife they all wanted to talk to me from Uncles and Aunties to a gradfather who just had his 90th birthday(so god help everyone i may be around that long lol). It is nice to have all those questions you have in ya head answered but again at the end of the day as overwelmed as i get when i hear from the other side of my new family, I always go out to see my mum and dad.

My Parents have been divorced since forever! No step parents. Dad has a series of insane women with a multitude of issues that keep me entertained... As long as they stay the hell away from me.
I had a weird experience not long ago. Someone who did not believe in Divorce ( no religious reasons) and when she found out that my olds weren't together she said how terribly sorry she was... It was a head spin for me that someone would see that as the worse of the two sits. I can honestly say that My parents are happier apart. There is nothing to be sorry about.

my old's split when i was about 2 years old and never saw each other again, i lived with my dad most of my life and never knew my mom. i found my mom and sis/bro's 3 months ago and just back from where they live ( tamworth ). it was strage but i had a ball and found out where i get all those annoying traits and body quirks. my step mom, that my dad married about 10 years ago, is the biggest cow i have ever met. she is the wicked step mother of wicked stepmothers, but i have to respect her for dad's sake ( well not really respect ). i met my step dad, that mum is about to marry and he is awesome! he is a very outspoken and honest person, which was surprising as i thought he would have to be nice and kind to me for mums sake, but he was honest and i respect that ( yes respect ). i find that step parents love their stepkids, but sometimes they dont treat us as they would their own kids ( i am not saying that they have double standards, but can be a little ignorant to kids that arent theirs ). my own son has a stepfather, my partner nate treats him as his own. sometimes frog thinks nate is too hard on him, but he is just trying to teach him repect and moral choices. i have learnt to live with my step mom being as flawed as she is, she is still the person my father loves and i can accept that. being a stepchild myself i understand the view of others. each family is different and we all have our flaws.

My parents split up about 6 months ago after 28 or so years together... Dad ran off with another woman who he'd been seeing behind Mum's back for 5 months.

I guess it's not really an issue for me at my age, whether or not I like my parents partners and vice versa, but thankfully, the guy my Mum is seeing now rocks. We all get on really well, he has a 17 year old son as well, and I'm just so chuffed that this bloke makes my Mum so happy, because it's the happiest I've seen her for years.

Dad on the other hand, well, I've lost a lot of respect for him over the past few months (not because he left, but because of the way he carried on after he DID leave). His partner? Meh. Good luck to them. I live with Mum so whatever Dad does doesn't bother me, thank god.

My parents divorced when i was about one and a half, I had to visit my real Dad until I was 11 when mum found me crying on my bed because I didn't want to go. A year after my only Uncle passed away at the age of 29 I had to go see Mark again and that was the last time!
My Mum met my (step) Dad when I was about four, he is tops! We (the family) are actually about to start the ball rolling on my Dad adopting me! I'm so excited! He can be a grumpy old bugger, and doesnt say much but his my Dad and I wouldn't swap him for quids!
Mark used to call around my birthday but I never answered the phone, he now hasn't rang for years! and I like it that way! I dont want him in my life anymore! He was just a sperm donor as far as I'm concerned! I changed my name last year to get rid of his surname and chaged it my mum's maiden name (which she kept when she remarried).
I have three step sisters, two of which live with Mark in Vic so I havent seen them for 11 years, the other I consider my full blood sister! She's an absloute trooper, a bit spoilt but a great gal! Thats my family and that's the way I like it!
