dealing with family

do you ever just get sick and tired of explaining yourself. Or tired of feeling like you have to make excuses to your family about your decision to not leave the addict in your life?

I understand that my family love me and they are trying to look out for me, but i get sick of hearing how much they disapprove of every decision I make.
For petes sake I am a grown woman and make my own decisions yet everytime any of them get a chance they feel this need to tell me how much my choices "make them sick' or how they "expected" so much more from me.........

URGGGG, I pay my bills, I take care of my kids I live a decent life, however i love an addict, an addict that is STILL working on trying to get better...........he hasnt given up
yet my family expects that I should.

Thanks for letting me vent
