Welcome to SR, Tully. I hope you stick around and have a read what is on here - it is a mine of information, not to mention full of wonderful people.

I needed to start putting value on ME, no matter what the alcoholic was doing.

I learned about boundaries here which helped me enormously. I learned that I was worth more than some taking out their frustration on me and using me as a verbal punchbag. I learned that it was OK to stop my then fiance driving my car. I learned that it was OK to want trust and respect in my intimate relationship and to leave if that had gone.

I hope you stick around and settle in.
