My wife still doesn't understand me and the disease I have. Alcoholism is a disease, learn it and understand it. Then you will understand him. AA has what they call the Big Book. Here is Chapter 8 to the Wifes
My wife was not understanding - she couldn't without learning.
She would drink and expect me not 2
She would make me watch our Son all the time
She would lie
She would cheat
She made me feel like a doormat and I drank more to cope with it.
It was my fault, but it might have all been different if I didn't drink. She just didn't understand me.
Resentment is #1 reason for drinking - Do find all the times you have hurt him and when he is sober. Have a heart to heart with him and tell him how sorry you are. If your really sorry.
Heather I just read all you BB. Your sit is almost like mine, but you are just like my W and I'm like your H.
He needs to know that Drinking will not be tolerated.
You need to prove to him that you love him. Quit working out
In time you can GAL, now you need to fix your M. He doesn't want to be a doormat - he just wants you to love him. He needs to know that - Sex, Kissing, Sorry's, just love him.
