Meeting makers make it.....There are the 4 m's too......mothering, manipulating, being a martyr, and managing. This is a repeat of my situation back about 6 yrs. I was so codependent and the A was quacking and deflecting the guilt onto me. He couldn't look at himself, didn't have a program, went to jail, cost him lots of $, lost his job, I had to drive him ( big resentment here for that one)......yuk. They are "king babies" .......
