I could not agree with you more about having infidelity being a criminal code offense. No one else could steal so much from you and get away with it.
I agree with the addiction - that was not really what I was saying. But it doesn't mean they'll give up that fix. Mine sure didn't - he married her. But if he wanted treatment - nothing I could do would help. He would have to get help himself. Mine actually acknowledged that he was in MLC and addicted to her and to alcohol. But he CHOSE to stay addicted.
