He is an alcoholic, yes, but he was horrible to me, so even if he "recovered" or something, there's no way I would check back at all/give him another chance or anything along those lines. With this email I realized that he still blames the break up on me. By telling me he has found someone who "truly loves him" he seems to be telling me: "we did not work out because yo did not love me enough". That's not true, of course, beause if I left him it wasn't out of that, it was out of his abusive behavior/of alcohol being his priority/of his constant disrespect, and so on...
All I have to say is... The relationship was pretty much about him. Nothing was about me. If I ever have another relationship it will be because he consistently treats me with respect and as an equal. I'm starting to believe I deserve it.
All the while I've been improving myself, busy with work, friends and learning new stuff I always wanted to learn.
Thanks for the awesome support, as always
P.S. I changed my email address.
