Hell is the impossibility of reason

Living with my ex girlfriend is much like living as an end stage active alcoholic .
As the title says.

That doesn’t sound like a positive thing. Why stay?

It’s not positive, you’re right.
Just had to vent.

Hi I'm confused...are you an end stage alcoholic living with your ex and your living situation is worse because of that?

No I was an end stage and living with her is as unreasonable as alcoholism

Sometimes there are practical reasons at work. My wife and I divorced, and we lived together while I looked for another house to buy. It's not like we hated each other, so it wasn't unworkable. A couple of weeks later we were talking to the lawyer who handled our divorce and he asked where I was living. I told him with my ex, and he looked like that was unheard of. I get it; It was unusual. My ex caught his befuddlement also, and jokingly quipped, "If he doesn't move out soon, we will be married under Common Law."

Been there with an ex wife. It is awful. Try to spend as much time away as possible and try to get it over as quick as possible. Talk to friends, go to meetings (if you do that), exercise, etc.

I also lived with my ex after splitting up we split in June and I left in September. But we were amicable because of kids. It is tough but can be done xx

Vent on. At least there is an end in sight.

I’ll just keep doing what Is best for my daughter in this situation and not make a bad thing worse.
Just got to keep telling myself this is why we can’t be together and I will be free of it soon.
Just hope she doesn’t do the mind games and manipulation on my daughter.
She is very good at it. But with clarity I can see her for what she is.

When I was drinking she could distract me for long enough so I would forget what wrong she had done and by that time another wrong was in place.... and round it went until that way of life was normal.
It’s complicated to explain. But she can’t be wrong and has to blame me or anything or someone, finds it difficult to take responsibility for her actions. Or maybe she believes these delusions (for want of a better word)
Her way has to be right regardless of the majority of reasonable thinking ( democracy)
