I also think some spouses might be resentful of the others sobriety even if they don't drink, it's just like if your spouse suddenly starts getting into great shape and taking care of themself and you start wondering "why, why now?" even if they wanted them to get in shape. God does have a plan for us and it's usually not what we expect.
