New to this....

My husband of 9 mths, is an alcoholic. Last weekend I asked him to leave. I guess I knew it looking back before we got married. However he always said the right things....which never lasted long. He has a lot of stress I understand with his ex wife and not having his daughter in his life. However, I was never a priority. The drinking and lying finally registered to where it was bringing me down. Not to go into all the terrible details.... He has started going to AA, taking it seriously, so he says and trying to change. He seems better then I have ever known him. However, I am "negative nancy". Has good as he sounds, I am not sold. I wish there was a time limit on when I can say he is good, no more problems, or he's not gonna make it. I want him to make it, I want a life together.. if he changes. So now, I am stuck. I'm too smart to take him back in the house. But dang it hurts to not have him here. I'm gonna try Al-Anon Friday. No real question here, just commenting.
