Al anon can be very helpful. I hope you wander in to a great group! But if not, keep trying a few other meeting times. I prefer my second group, but I'm about to hunt up a third group as I can't always leave work for 90 minutes.

"How to deal with a partner who lies?"
Try making sculptures out of Jello. It is much more rewarding.
I remember my late mother, who was told by the ex of a sex-addict, to divorce my father and disbelieve anything he said. She chose to ignore that advice.
I often wonder if she would have lived longer than just 71, had she moved on.
Another friend, the widow of an alcoholic, hung onto to him for 20 years after he started drinking. She is now suffering from late-stage Alzheimers.
I am sure that my separated mate will not be there for me in my old age. I have decided to not make the same mistake my mother and friend made.
