Have you been to Alanon? Therapy? I loved the idea of a life-long partner, too. But when you dreamed of your future husband one day, did you EVER dream of having an alcoholic, drug addict husband?

I didn't, but when the dream didn't pan out, I kept on trying to mold him into something he wasn't. How insane was that?
