Does my husband love his daughter more than me (his wife)?Thu, Nov 29th 2007This probably seems silly but I feel like I have to fight for any attention from my husband with my step daughter! She gets anything she wants from dad because (he has come right out and told me) he feels guilty because she doesn't live with us! He does everything with her. She is a sports-aholic so he goes to all her games and even practices... if its baseball and thats 30 miles away! She has tourneys all through summer so we haven't done any family time in about 9 yrs! We have 3 other boys and I feel bad for them! I keep hoping it would get better ... and the boys are all grown now but she is 16 now and manipulates him so well I am about to throw in the towel!! She knows it too. She does little things like saying dad over and over again when she talks to him and it is just me and him there with her. She always wants to go to games of any kind like other high school games/practices or watch them on tv I am ready to give up! I need some me time with hubby we haven't had a romantic night since well...forever...
