Just finished reading both your threads and boy do they resonate. We even got the bomb at the same time. My drinking has also caused a bunch of problems in our R. I've been pretty clean since beginning of Nov, but it can sometimes get tough.
I think my W is experiencing some very similar things to yours, but she is less talkative with me. She's finishing a phd on top of a full-time job, so has just snowed herself under with work. I think she's using that as an escape to not deal with R.
Thanks for voicing a lot of what I've been feeling but didn't know how to write down. Sure is good to see someone experiencing positive steps, even though the journey is still going on. Anyway, reading your posts makes me want to think back through what has passed between my W and I and see if I can better understand what she was trying to say to me.
