Guess what? He’s drinking again. Lol. Go figure. 🤷*♀️. He got in touch with me because his sisters wanted him to talk to his elderly father to move in with them. None of my business but later on he got in touch again and he was drunk. Just can’t handle any emotional pressure. Lol. He thinks he’s got a handle on it. But, I have no worries about this now, I’m free of it. |
DandC…….while it is disappointing...it is never surprising when an alcoholic relapses.... Aren't you sooo grateful to be detached from the situation?! |

That is a shame but without any kind of support this will probably continue. It's very difficult to change without that support. I'm glad you are doing pretty well and I'm really glad you aren't having to deal with that anymore dazed! https://i.postimg.cc/1RGwRggB/freedom-the-carousel.jpg |

Most surprising to me is the way I feel. When he was around drinking, I actually physically hurt! He would drink, I’d get sick. Not feeling that now. 👍👑🤗 |
So proud of you Dazed. See how far you have come!! Not your circus, not your monkeys!!! Celebrate your freedom!! |

See, it wasn’t your marriage but his addiction. I’m really glad you are having a healthy response to this—the hard recovery work you’ve done and are still doing is really shining through DC :grouphug: |

From what I read above I dont think you are either dazed or confused anymore. I am still hard lessons but thats a different story, Glad your doing ok D&C |
Thanks DC--it's truly a team effort here and I learn so much everyday from our collective experience and hope. I agree with HL that you are neither dazed nor confused any longer, and maybe you might think about a new "handle" for yourself on the list. You're excellent with language--any ideas? |

Queen OfaLot :) By the way, is he still calling you for emotional rescue or has he realized that's above your pay grade now? |

Hawk, he tries to pull me into his drama, but I make it short and sweet. As I stated previously, we were always good friends, and far be it from me, to make his life harder than it is. Simply put: I choose not to be drawn into it... |
Well done on your part for both of you! I hope he chooses to get back on the wagon and just deal with life on life's terms again. Meanwhile, keep packing for that lovely farm. Did you finally choose a place yet? |
