I am so sorry you are going through this!
Keep focusing on you and your truth and it will get better, I promise.
My AH has been sober for a little over two months and every day he is sober he acts like I should put on a parade for his success...
We go to marriage counseling about every 5 weeks and the counselor tells him exactly what I tell him but somehow it is only believable when it comes from the counselor. And AH says he doesn’t want the marriage to end.
I have seen nothing in the meantime that he really wants to make it work other than that he is still manipulative and needs to know where I’m going and who with all the time. And things have changed exactly how?
I think it is over for me but also know him and am almost bracing myself to see him meet someone and pull the same stunts your AH has done. I know he is capable of it...
Good luck and stay true to you!
Thank you for your message. I hope your AH doesn’t pull the same stunt as mine. From what I’m reading on these forums this type of behavior is normal early in recovery. Trading one addiction for another. It’s a good reminder for me not to take things personally, I could be Heidi Klume and he still would have cheated. Lol

Last night I went out with friends and flirted a bit. It was fun and for the first time in weeks I went to bed without crying. Life will go on without all my RAHs drama, mood swings and cheating to deal with. As long as I can figure finances out I’ll be so much better off. Have a great day
