He has been no drinking for 4 days, he seems very genuine (im sure its been said before...lol) he is seeing counsellor and has started a fitness challenge for 8 weeks.
Im noticing many things, like im wanting to cook dinner as its not going to be a drunk just inhaling it, he hangs out with me more, no recycling bin over flowing, no smelly bed and man with beer coming out his pores,
BUT im not in lala land I do know he will most likely slip up, time will tell.
Im doing good for myself, im putting me and kids first, im realising just how much I thought it was 'normal' when clearly it was not.
He is coping very well so far. I didn't realise how much anxiety I had subconsciously - like when the phone rang (my heart skipped a beat) I thought it would be him saying hes at his mates drinking, I was wrong.
When he ate dinner I wasn't bitter and annoyed at his chewing - it was sober chewing. Anyways time will tell Thanks for the support in here.
I don't seem to be so angry about past hurts (today anyway...)
