I don’t know why I have taken so long to get the hang of this alcoholism thing. I have been very dense about it....What has been striking to me is the number of people who report exactly similar behaviours from alcoholic partners. I think this is what is finally making the penny drop for me that it’s not just us.
This was true for me as well. For the longest time, I told no one because I guess I knew on some level that they would try to convince me he had a problem and/or that I needed to leave....I preferred that everyone think I had the perfect BF. All along, I've struggled with whether it's H's problem or mine anyway. Regardless, it adds a very complex dimension to a R.....like R's don't already have enough complex dimensions
This really is it, it is make or break time and I actually feel pretty good about it.
You sound much less confused than you did a few posts ago, that's great and I'm really glad you're more sure of yourself and how you feel...hang on to yourself throughout this process and keep strong.
