Hello All,

I told my AH that I wanted to separate until he gets sober. He said he will go to AA and counseling. I said that is fine and once you get sober, we can talk then but we need to separate until you actually get sober. He says I am being unreasonable and that the reason I want a separation is that I have a boyfriend. Oh ya, between taking care of the kids, house and working, I have time for that. Plus after all the BS with you, that is the last thing on my mind.

So he is obviously going to make this difficult. Has anyone else dealt with this and how do you get a separation from them??? Better yet, how do you live under the same roof with them with all this tension?

Thanks!
