I'm in the same boat
I was dating a man I loved, who was a closeted alcoholic I knew he drank but not daily and to his extent. High functioning. Suddenly, he up and left me the 1st time i told him i didnt want to hang with his drinking buddies. This drinking buddy, who is the disabled alcoholic with the cirrhosis of the liver, has only been in the picture 3 weeks and he chose him over me. I never asked him.to choose he just has no time.for me.anymore so he curbed me Now I'm dealing with the pain and depression he has left me. I'd kill for him to come back. I'd kill for anything he'd give me. I've almost lost me job twice since he's been gone and I have completely lost myself to losing him.

Here it feels overwhelming because despite these things I still love him. I know he doesn't deserve me and I know I need to get away- which is ultimately why I said goodbye. It's just tough on my emotions right now, and I keep trying to think of the negative things but my brain only wants to remember the good.
Stupid brain.
Stupid brain.
