Julie-
I have to say that you amaze me with your strength. I agree that we have very similar H. The anger/insults/blame never end. I am just absolutely amazed at some of the horrible things that my H says to me. The last time I told my H that I needed something from him, he walked up to me and gave me the middle finger.

Just awful. Who does that?? Certainly not the person I walked down the aisle with.

I am glad that your H acknowledged his drinking. I wish he treated you better. You handle his anger so well. I wonder if that's why he continues to be so cruel? It's hard to justify his actions when he has a W that is patient and kind and a great mother. His anger is his issue.

And I totally 'get' your blatant reminder. It's the little things sometimes. Do you know the OW? How do they know each other? I believe that A die a natural death. They are built on a crumbled foundations and fulfilled by people that bring issues to the table.
