I think there is a middle ground....

I think that confronting them will depend on the situation, and what agenda you have planned for that.

If it is to induce a reaction in any way, or if you have hopes of waking him up, then I would disagree with it...

If you can handle waiting, and apply the 48 hour rule. And you can come from a place of understanding and forgiveness, then I would say to step lightly through the minefield you want to enter.

There will be a lot of anger back at you, and he will project a lot of his actions onto you. He will probably go through his laundry list of things, much like bomb day revisited. This will all be your fault once again.

It will leave you wondering how this got turned around onto you. You will have to act from a rational state of mind, and not RE-act emotionally.

If you can handle all of that, then I say go for it...

My question is...

Will this bring you closer, or further from your goals ????

This has to be your answer, not your friends, or neighbors...

These things rarely go well.
