Thank you imLin, That is very insightful. I just feel like I've been so busy trying to convince him that I can get on without him, which I can, by the way, that I haven't let him know that I want him in my life. Warts and all.

I'm not saying I wouldn't want him to continue therapy and would wish he could ditch the alcohol.

I have told him a thousand times in the past that I wasn't here because I required his support, but wanted his love. Nothing since this all started.
