Oh give it a rest. I honestly read your criticisms and am mildly amused if anything. If you post this for your own enjoyment, understandable. If you mean it as legitimate criticism as well, it is a waste of your effort.
True. Although I wouldn't tolerate it if she were. It is absurd for a child to end up with a step-parent who is rude or abusive.
The chances of that being the case are almost zero, but can you imagine being in that situation? Talk about twilight zone. BTW they are the same age, 40-50 yrs old so its not like she's a 20 years younger trophy wife or anything.
Most normal people, and I say normal people, that enter into another family, do know, and realize, they could never replace a parent. That is absurb.
Don't beat yourself up about this, for now, given your situation, and given your adamant views, until you can resolve this within yourself, for now, let it go. This isn't really working is it? It does bother you, or you wouldn't bring it up. Let it go, this is getting you no where.
Over time, maybe/hopefully your views will change. As long as she is nice, and things are fine within the family, what have you got to loose. You could after awhile, begin to like her.
Well, most people I know take well to their father's girlfriend, especially after that long of a time period.
How long do you mean? The 2 year period? It's been about 1 year that I've really had contact with her.
You're her BF's son, fer CHRISSAKES. She's just overcompensating.
Relax, be polite and don't fvck it up.

Strange, I have stated that I am friendly, joking, polite and cordial ~10 times in this thread so far.
You give commands about how to behave yet do not actually fully read the OP?
My question is in regards to her motivations and the necessity or lack of of a deeper relationship.

she's trying to be nice to you, to get to know you, and to get acquainted so you don't get pissed when your dad marries her. honestly, she's opening her arms to accept while you are trying to close yourself in.
I wonder why they would get married after dating for only 2 years. It's not like they are going to have kids or anything. Why not let the honeymoon period pass before making that decision? Who knows if they really are planning to get married or not, I don't know. The thought does make my skin crawl though, it's kind of a bummer really. It's difficult to not let the vitriol over the events of the divorce and subsequent behavior affect my point of view. And odd, becuase again, usually I am pretty calm.
All of you continually quoting the "sounds like you're jealous cause your dad hangs with her" thing are still as incorrect as the quoted post was.
Well, half the people who posted insist she has no stepmom intentions and another percentage make mention of it. I don't know what her point of view is but I don't want a stepmom, it's not necessary for her to assume that role in order for my father and her to be happy and I absolutely have no interest in it.
I have some reading to do?
"All of you continually quoting" means "All those who are continually quoting." That doesn't include you, and really, what is it with the absolute jackal mentality around here. In nearly every thread, looking for anything to tear into a person about.
