Wow.. thanks for sharing that.. When i syart to blame the drinking he comes right back at me.. always when he doesnt like to hear what i have to say and has brought up my weight a few times. i am a big girl.. lucky for me i have a very high self esteem and am very confident.. for a long time i let my emotions about this destroy me. When i left him for a month it really did change me.. I go out with my friends regardless.. Just dont like the drama part.. the "aftermath" sometimes.. Like talking to a brick wall.. I have to start taking care of me.. He gets mad over nothing and now it is very easy for me to walk around the house not acknowledging his presence... Thats scary... lol
