Because I know its exhausting trying to make eveything right with someone like that. They take advantage of nice woman like ourselfs.
Elizabeth, thanks for sharing! Love your picture, by the way. Very pretty! And, yes, I'm exhausted and burned out and that's why I'm just letting things lie as they are. In the past, I would have, at some point, stayed up late and sat on the couch next to him and tried to get him to open up, to tell me all his problems, and I'd take on those problems as if they were my own. I'm just sooooooo over that right now. He will have 3 weeks alone. 3 weeks to drink if he chooses, 3 weeks to check out porn on his computer, 3 weeks to think about what he wants out of life.
