I so relate to your story except now I am away from my ex thank God but it took 7 times of us leaving each other to stay away for good.

Part of an alcoholic relationship is the very many lies. It got to the point where if he said it was raining out I had better go to the window and check.

The insanity for me was my life always seemed to mellow out when we were apart, sure I missed him but there was a peace when he wasn't around then I would take him back and bam it would start the cycle all over again.

I needed to get help for myself so I could stand up and be strong enough to stay gone.

IMHO unless he stops drinking there isn't much hope for a stable sane relationship. So I guess the ball is sort of in your court just what are you willing to live with?

I thank God everday we didn't have kids cause that would just have added to the insanity.

You and you kids deserve to have a life full of love, laughter, and hope for a new day.
