Well, try to get to know her. It's hard to be a step-parent and it's hard to be a step-child but you need to try to make the best of it. It's not her fault (I don't guess) that your parents broke up she apparently just loves your dad. Good luck

Be happy for your Dad, he will always be your Dad no matter what.
Try to be nice to this lady most step moms aren't trying to take the place of your Mom, but you are important to her because your Dad loves you and she knows you are important to him.
You don't say why you are confused, but usually, these things are grown up stuff maybe you could have a talk with your Dad about what is confusing you about this, I'm sure he would love it if you shared how you feel with him. Best of luck to you.

You're not confused, you're just not sure that you want him to marry a woman that is not your mother. He has obviously found someone that makes him very happy, and wants to share the rest of his life with. Be happy for him,and handle this situation like he will someday when you find the man/woman of your dreams. He is certainly old enough to make this decision, but I'd bet he'd really love to hear you say that you are happy for him.Don't look at this situation like you are loosing a Dad, look at it like you are gaining a good friend for life. I hope you like her, but even if you're not crazy about her, be respectful because you love your Dad.

Be happy for your dad and his girlfriend. Help them by being supportive and you can benefit from his new wife and she can benefit from having you as a wonderful step-daughter.
Life is too short, so, stop it with the confused emotion already, CELEBRATE and wish them a happy life together!!

As someone who has the absolute worse step-mother in the world, I have to say. Get to know the woman. She may end up being a very good friend for you, and a lifetime mate for your father. She deserves the benefit of the doubt. Give her a fair chance. Then if she she messes that up, it's on her.

It is perfectly normal to be confused...don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Hopefully, his new wife will want you and her to be on good terms, and hopefully both of them will want to include you as part of their lives. you don't give any details, like your age, or about your mother, but just try to be open-minded and and things will work out. no matter how common divorce & re-marriage is these days, it can be devastating to the kids, so you are not wrong to feel confused. Best wishes to you.

Not much to be confused about. If your dad is happy, you should be happy for him. Yeah, it might be a little weird, but you'll get used to it, as long as his new girl is a nice human being.

accept her as best you can given the situation. she may not be your mom, but she can certainly be your friend. Think of it as a chance to let someone new in to possibly enrich your life. Stay true to yourself most of all, and don't be afraid to give your opinion when it needs to be given. You deserve to be heard, so tell your dad your reservations andf concerns beforehand so you two are on the same level of understanding.

think about a wedding present
why are you confused.
is it strange for man to remarry
or do you prefer he lives in sin.
or don't you want your dad to have fun .
to be unconfused ,talk to them and get to know the new woman in his life
maybe you can become friends
or is that too crazy.
