I have tried IC and didn't get very far. It all comes down to me loving with my all and being loyal to a fault. Even when it is one sided. I hope I learn from this and don't end up in the same situation years down the road.
Unless you can figure it out (and learn to adjust), you easily could. This ^^^^ always SOUNDS like "love" on the surface, but it's a very slippery slope to full-on, unhealthy CO-DEPENDENCY.
I'm sorry for your pain, DFE. I can hear your love for your kids in your posts, and my heart aches for you. It is from that place of concern for you that I'm trying to get you to stand strong for yourself -- and your kids -- here. Your husband needs to figure out his OWN issues, which frankly, sound legion.
