Thanks Mrs. Woogie,
I'm glad to know I'm not alone in this. Me and my husband have been married for over 20 years. We have had many more years of happy days until alcohol entered our lives. We used to fish and camp all the time on weekends with no need to get drunk. I think people just loose their self's when they enter alcohol into a relationship. He never touched me until we drank and always gave me anything I wanted and cared for me when I was sick. I just feel sorry for the fact that I let it go on this long! He has 50% blame to cope with too! This is why separation is a necessity. He has to loose everything to realize I am not kidding around. I will choose my daughter over him. He will do the right thing and if he does not then this will be his loss not mine! Thanks for your story it helps me to hear of others going through the same situation.
