Because it didn't match my image of myself as the strong, patient woman who with her love won in the end.

That's just my story. Not yours. But I wanted to share it. In case you felt judged. That was not my intent.
Me too lillamy.
This sounds so much like my inner dialogue at the time, it is incredible.
You write it so well.

me too Liz, I want to be supportive and helpful,
but I guess I say it too many times.

It felt like a distraction when you picked up the story about the pepper spray
in order to stop talking about sexual abuse.
Only my opinion, and I think if I have gotten that far, (reading your mind)
then it is too far for me.
Time to check my codependency here, and think about what lillamy said.
I am trying to change you and that does not work for me.

It's when I stopped posting about her and started posting about me. That was the point where I assumed responsibility for my life and my recovery.
Thank you so much for this Mike.
Liz, you do have to get this yourself.
You deserve a good life, and so does your son.
