I did not reunite. But what a crock of ...your moodiness? Couldn't possibly be due to living with active alcoholism and the subsequent fear and anxiety it causes for the spouse, could it?
Nah. 'Course not.
You did the best thing for your own sanity. It is hard, either which way. At least this way you have some peace and stability.
I wouldn't go to counseling with a spouse or ex who said he was going to continue to drink/drug. Nope. What's the point?
