Hello Purple Squirrel...
While, he may be my ex, I do still care. Being in recovery for me means being honest about my feelings. I'm still learning about Alcoholism, so I was attempting to understand the seriousness of this type of symptom.
I once said in an Al-anon meeting that I can scream or cry...or;I can laugh and smile....
If an alcoholic chooses to drink, he/she will do so no matter what I do....
So, yes...while I am choosing to do my best to come to terms with such sad circumstances, I really want to do so by understanding the disease to the best of my ability and without anger, which I'll admit was something I struggled with when we first parted ways....
This also isn't the first time I have been involved with someone who's had some "issues" shall we say, so I am well aware that I have plenty of work that I need to do on myself first, before I can get back out there again!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, I really do appreciate it...
All the best,
Diva 76
