    I know it is something that bothered me when we got together (this was when her mum was alive and she had abandoned her to live life as a single girl) and it will be the thing that breaks us - I am not naive enough to think that it wont. As she has got older the situation has worsened and I suppose it is now coming to a head.

    What you do is going to cause an issue with your Oh. If you feel this is important enough to lose him over, then carry on, you'll have done your best by his child and abandoned him when he needed you. You are his OH, not her step mother. You had a chance to establish a relationship with her, but this didn't happen. Consider your Oh and work with him, not against him.
