Foo

and another thing, his FOO never left us to be a couple. Always up in the business. His sister has no life of her own, always shadowing AH. It was a constant tug of war game. And if I said a thing about her interference, it was me who was wrong. What does that tell you? Glad that will be over for me.

Addiction is for sure a family affliction.

it might help other readers if more of your story was in fewer posts, rather than random one sentence posts.

Dazed....sounds like your husband could have used some of that duct tape and bailing wire for his own family boundaries.....

boundaries...boundaries...boundaries....

Should have seen boundary issues here early on when his mother asked me what he was like in bed! 😳😳

The good news is his FOO is no longer your problem, nor is he in what. . . 27 days?

I hope he is packing, specially since he still wants to play "nekked man".

An unwanted dangling appendage is just that. . .

Yep, no surprise there. Other tactics aren't working.
Just keep on moving forward. He will still have to move, and I think he will be in relapseville before then if he doesn't get his way.

I truly hope I'm wrong, but I've dealt with alcoholics pretty much all my life and I am familiar with the typical modus.

I'd grey rock this as well--don't engage as that's what he's looking for.
He may not want a divorce, but that's no newsflash, is it?

Well, either the store has a great calming effect or yes, he's still drinking.

If someone said to me, I don't want a divorce and I might see a lawyer, I would have eviction papers drawn up so fast he wouldn't have time to go see a lawyer.

He might not be aware but there is nothing he can file to keep you hostage.

And you are great!!
