I appreciate that coconut and understand what your saying and do agree that the changes I make need to come from within. My point was that by walking away at this point, I feel less likely to slip into common behaviors that have been there for a long time. Once divorced and living separately, it will be outside my comfort zone because I've lived with her for so long, making it less likely for me to slip back into the behaviors I'm trying to break.
Those behaviors have nothing to do with my W, it's just expressing that it's easy to get comfortable and slip into old behaviors, just like being around an addiction that you are trying to heal from can cause you to slip into those old patterns and behaviors.
Thanks!
