A little background... I am 40, she is 35, we have been together for 14 years and married for 9 1/2. and have 2 amazing kids 5 and 8. I have been an alcoholic battling the disease for years and have finally come into my real recovery and taken my life back. Although I have done this, the damage that I have done has taken its toll, I own this and know my responsibility. It is now that she after 4 sessions with a counselor tells me that it is over and there is nothing that I can do to change her mind. This counselor did me no favors, that I know after reading, I am at the end of my rope and grasping straws. Nothing is worth more to me than her and my kids and I just don't know how to get her to see that this can be fixed. I have begun to employ some of the strategies in the book and am waiting on results. My question is do I let her know I am reading the book or keep it to myself for now? any input is appreciated
