And you do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around...
Yeah folks thats my life. Damn, I have problems. Went to my therapist who convinced me that it was best for me to cut off any further contact from him, bc I seem to be unable to not rescue him. OK, I said that I was not comfortable with that yet, and I would like to be a part of his life but would be unable to be responsible for him in any way.

I went to his hotel to tell him that and he told me that I could NOT be a part of his life unless I helped him. THOSE EXACT WORDS. So, I said, well I guess thats it then, and he said yes it is. So, I left. Now, he is burning the ringer of my cell phone and about to really **** me off royally.

Hmm...looks like I need to redo step 1.

Turn off the phone--do not repeat any conversation or behavior--He's
just trying to pull you back into the same mess--warning--warning--these are not
words of advice that I could necessarily follow but they are words I have heard from my own counselor..I really hope you can stand strong--I took me months or
maybe years--but I'm better because of it. Huggs and smiles--Dee

Hang tough Elizabeth. You scared him. He knows your serious.

You can get through this....

The steps have to be a way of life every day of our lives for the rest of our lives. I have to keep going to that first step every day when I get up and ask my H.P. to guide me through the day and enable me to cope with the lunacy. Remember, nobody gains perfection ... it's about progress.

He'll do anything he can to suck you back into his insanity because he needs you. When he realizes you're not going to dance to his tune any longer, he'll give up. Let him find a new victim - you know you deserve a lot better!!!
