Mom is getting married to another guy do I have to call him step dad even tho I hate him?

No you don't. parents always thing it's going to be like the Brady Bunch but lets face it. It is never like the Brady Bunch.
I coached soccer for many years and I had a lot of my players that had step fathers and I don't think a single one of them had something good to say about their step fathers.

[Nobodyherebutme]

My father married a woman that I loath with every fiber of my soul. She slept with my father knowing he was married and didn't give a shit. She helped ruin my mother's life. So it'll be a frosty fucking day in hell before I call her stepmom. When she dies I'm gonna piss on her grave. So no, don't call him stepdad if you have reason to hate him.

[Jessica405]

Call him something neutral, like his first name. My mum's partner is always called by his first name by my brother and I.

[summiter]

No you can call him whatever you feel comfortable with. Maybe ask your mom if it is ok to call him by his first name.

[kkirk4442]

It depends on what your mom says. But usually, no, your are not required to call him dad.

[Crazybeeguy]

Fuck no

[Dargil]

Call him by his first name.

[BillHe1]

Just use his name..

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Nope, my Dad remarried a crazy woman and she is age 65 and he is age 80
I never will call her Mom to cause my real Mom passed away and when my Grandma
passed my Dad didn't have the nerve to stop by to tell me and my Sister but my Dads late Brother ( Uncle George ) widow, Aunt Barb told me after I read it in the Newspaper

[chriscdi]

you dont gotta accept him if you dont want too but if the guy cares about you and is willing to use his time on you and trying to bond i think you should respect him as a person

[Wise4myage]

Yes, or calling him by his first name is fine too. Focus on getting along with him for your moms sake.

[jahaims]

You're an adult do what you want

[MasterOfReality]

Not at all. You can call him by his first name. Or you can call him “Mr (whatever his last name is)”
This will let him know you are not in the least bit interested in getting to know him any better.

[Twalli]

No. my grandfather remarried after his wife died. My dad never called her his stepmother, even though there was no animosity. Whenever we visited it was always "My dad an Chris" (her name was Christine).

[KrakenAttackin]

You don't have to call him anything. You do need to be respectful but calling him "dad" doesn't have to be part of it.

[In_Trance]

whatever works for ya

[mrkdvsn]

No, just call him by his first name

[JamieLoves]

No... call him whatever you like

[Luckycharms12]

No you don't

[najekim]

As describing him he is your step-father unless he adopts you. However when addressing him, his name would be suffice.

[Paulychicago10]

No you shouldn't. Call him by his name if anything

[Jmmmfi4]

Thats up to you

[lycanthrope3]

Call him by his name
