We attended an al-anon meeting last night. Perfect timing. It was a reading meeting and the readings were about boundaries and detachment.
My husband told me it wasn't for him and was awkward and wasn't helpful, etc. Then later he said how nice everyone was to us. They even gave us "How Al-Anon Works" books for free. Then he said "I guess we should go back because they are so nice."
That tickled me!
