HopeSpringsToo,
Your post was very helpful for me. I worry that I could end up in a situation similar to yours in the future. One thing I am grateful for is not marrying him in that time. He said he felt like he could have stayed clean if we had kids together, but you know from experience I'm sure, that just makes it harder. My father is an addict and we are not close. I've seen firsthand how it affects children..
I will have to check out that support group! I have been to Al-anon and enjoyed it. Thanks again for your post- I need all of the support/advice I can get.
Hugs.
