I'm here because I need to take the power away from my husband.
Take lastnight, I was perfectly happy, told him earlier in the day I had separated myself from him emotionally and he was now free to do whatever his little heart desired. I made my couch available to him for $200 and the rules were simple...no emotiona/physical abuse and if/when he gets high, he can ONLY come home AFTER he's slept.
The idiot showed up lastnight coked out, not 9 hours after I told him about this. I flew off the handle, threw my keys, spit in his face, even socked him. I had to call a friend because I was literally afraid I was going to bash his skull in.
Anyways, to me, that just shows that he has WAY too much power over me to affect my moods. I guess, the way I view Alanon is that if I was so together with MYSELF, then no matter what he did, it wouldn't rain on my parade. Is that accurate? I mean, do I view this group in a real light or is this just some illusion that i'm seeing?
