K--I struggle with that every day. I know what you are saying, I even bought and read the "Tough Love" book...I am going to download a sermon my pastor in K.C. gave last April about loving Christian vs doormat. See if it helps me at all...
It is just hard for me to draw that line. To meet him at the door and say "You need to stay out as long as you are acting this way and cannot commit". I was all fired up last night, even told him to get out, then S6 came upstairs and climbed on my lap and hugged me goodnight and I looked in his trusting, loving little eyes. I feel like I am taking his world away. I KNOW I didn't, I KNOW H did, but taking "the plunge" and following through is scary for me.
I keep thinking he will either shape up or move out but so far he hasn't done either.............stupid Darth Vader husband. Needs a lightsaber upside the head.
