Is There a Correlation Between Codependency/Enabling and Passive Aggressive Behavior?
Since my AF's passing, I've started to conclude that the worst enablers in his situation may not have been the bar buddies and bar trash GF, but people in the family. Supposidly, they objected to his drinking, but weren't willing to make the effort to include him in alcohol-free family activities, either. Their behavior towards him and now towards me has been 100% passive aggressive. (The majority of the family has snubbed me since his death, people keep making offhand comments alledgedly about no one in particular but won't voice their complaints to my face, etc.) Is this an unfortunate "casualty" of the disease?
