It may take some time for you to grieve the end of the relationship, and the loss of the dream of what could have been.

You are such a wise young lady. I believe you are going to be okay!

One of the things that helped me get through the toughest days was this:
I kept a list in my wallet of what my relationship with my active alcoholic meant.
It said:

________'s love comes with:
drunkeness
emotional instability
loneliness
financial instability
legal problems
physical illness
depression


I looked at that list when I was feeling lonely and wanted to call my A.
