He drank the first ten years and then quit cold turkey. I don't imagine that was very easy. But he did it. But I think he thinks that since he did that, that he must not be an alcoholic. I never wanted him to have to give it up completely. I just wanted him to find a balance, a happy medium.
I am willing to be a transparent as he wants me to be. I will do WHATEVER IT TAKES to make this marriage work. I have completely given up OM. The sight of him sickens me. What else can I do except continue to be completely honest and forthright, transparent? I have apologized to no end and will continue to do so as long as it is warranted.
I guess just time?
