Hi Designer,

I am so sorry you are sad....You are in a tough situation, still living with ABF, but knowing that in 2 weeks, you will no longer be.

Stay strong for the next few weeks, get yourself out of there, and then begin with your healing.

It is so darn sad that someone would choose alcohol over a loved one, and completely not understandable.

But....I think you are doing this because you love yourself, and you love him. And by staying with him, you will not be helping yourself or him. And by leaving him, you WILL BE taking care of yourself, and he'll have to take care of himself.

It takes a very strong person to do what you are doing. You are young, you are loving, you are smart, you deserve to be loved and treated with respect, not coming 2nd in line to a drink.

Take care and I'll be sending calm thoughts your way....

Shivaya
