I guess this makes good sense. And it's the truth. I'm scared to death to be alone and I'm disrespecting myself to make sure my husband and I don't split up. It's sad.

Ok so I have it down...boundary needs to be set. Now I guess the issue isn't
Him going out, it's how often and how late. This is where I struggle. Talking to him about it and making an honest boundary without sounding
Controlling or like I'm nagging. I still feel like him going out once a week till 4 am isn't wrong. Am I wrong? It bothers me cause it has never been in his nature. But does that mean its wrong?
