Wow it has been a long time, anyone remember me?

I have moved on so far in my life since I was last here. ExAGF and 20+ yo drug dealer moved back to Missouri and I have yet to see her since. I met a woman, an old friend of 20 years and we started dating last year. We were married in October and life is looking really good. Meredith is a nurse and is the most wonderful woman in the world (to me) and I am just glad that I was able to move past the addiction chaos of a lover and find eventual peace. I wish all you out there suffering through the chaos right now all the best. Hang in there, it does get better.

The collective wisdom of this forum is the reason my codependency did not land me in the booby-hatch.

(((Noah))) - congratulations on taking care of YOU!! I don't even want to think where I'd be, if it weren't for SR and all the great people here.

Hugs and prayers,

Amy

hEY iMPUrrfect...yeah its been a battle but I am doing great now and not hear to rub it in only to point out that it gets better and or GREAT! Married a lovely woman, back in school, still working and remodleing, am a veggie gardner now, running for city council and I have become very politically active among other things. If not for SR and all the great folks on here I might not have made it...you should all give yourselves a round of applause...

Hi There Noah

Nice to hear that things are going really well for you. Things can and often do get better... and you are a shining example of that.

Hi Noah!
Wow this is really great news! Very thoughtful of you to pop in to give encouragement, as it is pretty important for all to know that things do get better. Congradulations on your marriage as well Noah, she is a lucky lady as well!

Hi Noah,

I remember you and am thrilled that you have come back to say hi. It's so helpful to hear about how people make it through this horrible maze and move on.

I am truly happy for you and your new bride!
