It sounds stupid, but I really think my mom likes her boyfriend more than her own child. She always seemed really happy around him and when she is around me she barley says a word…? Is she disappointed in me? I don’t know why she would be. But I don’t even like her boyfriend. He comes home drunk and calls her horrible names. I swear if he ever touches her I will probably kill him. But I have made a huge decision, I’m moving to my dads. I’m sick of having to constantly be my moms second choice. And I don’t like feeling like this anymore. I have thought about hurting myself. But I have chose a different path and I’m getting away from it all.

My mom used to be the exact same way with my step dad, how long have they been dating? Sometimes thats just a phase. I ended up moving to my dads actually for that exact reason. I currently live there now, which I’m actually happier. I think if hes been an asshole already to your mom, you should probably just get out. Whats the point of sticking around with dysfunction like that, sounds like she could do better.
Some people just get so wrapped up in a relationship, especially an unhealthy one, that it blots out everything else. They are desperate to hold on to it. If he is treating her like shit and all she wants is more than you need to just accept that for what it is. This has nothing to do with you at all.
If you get along with your dad (admittedly a bizarre and alien concept to myself) then you should go there. Your mom needs to figure some things out on her own it sounds like.
