Hmm. Good question. I dont know if im necessarily "Addicted" to my A. I just begun to recognize that he does have a problem. Didnt notice it before because of my own ignorance. Now that I have better knowledge of alcoholism ive been able to make better choices with how I handle things. I don't follow him, stalk him, or show up anywhere he would. I've gone five days with no contact this week. I think if I was addicted to him I wouldn't be able to go even two days without him. Im not addicted to changing him. I left it up to him to assess himself and choose whether or not he wants to do anything about it. If anything im addicted to ME! Addicted to making MYSELF happy. For putting MY needs first. And making sure IM healthy. There are times when I miss the sound of his voice, his hugs, perspectives, and words of encouragement. And my heart hurts when I miss those things. But im not addicted. Perhaps growing up a military bratt ive learned to detach from people easily.
