The unfaithful wife...that's me..

[SueS]

Hi Mel-

I don't condone what you did in the past. However, I have to say that I see you as strong for coming here. I'm sorry that you've taken this verbal beating lately. I can say that we're similar and I came close to being a WAW because of the problems that alcohol caused. My H is home, but I'm still pretty much a LBS.

I know that we're supposed to be there "until death do us part" and "in sickness and in health". However, until you've been the child and/or wife of an alcoholic, you have no idea what it's like. I'm not trying to sound like a "woe is me" kind of person, but it's true. It's the same with being in a relationship where an A has happened. People have NO idea the pain until they've lived it. I know I'm rambling, but I just want to say that I understand where you're coming from as far as your past with your H and the problems that alcohol played.

Take care!

SueS
