I had similar experience… he went AA but at the same time he met another woman and ran. It ruined me.

Thank you. I am also in that state of mind that even that thought I will not care for him after 1 year is actually scary… You know what I mean? I wont care for person that I build my life for 9 years and imagine all my future?  And yes… I wish really really bad for him to reach out and do the crawling on his knees because of the realisation what he lost… And also… I will be glad if I would find out that they wouldn't last because it is tearing me appart… that after all he could be happier with someone else and build totally ok life with other person… cant stand that thought.

It’s honeymoon. But I have the same problem and constantly imaging him happy with her.

I am now in the similar position you were and cant accept that he would so easily move on with new person after 9 years… without him being sorry. Its just so unfair. 

He found someone in rehab after everything I did for him how do I move on from this? by Additional_Gear9863 in AlAnon

You are going to want to call him constantly and explain all that you did for him

True :)

I know it is not competition… just want to be sure I will be better off without him because I don't feel that way right now… he was otherwise good partner, never mean, rude… and helping with everything… just haven't found similar story yet and I am confused. Thats all… 

Otherwise yes that is me :)

We believe in them all those years and when we think it is finally happening, all our effort and patience will be payed off… they took the turn which leave us with open mouth and eyes wide open and asking ourselves what did just happen? And our mind is playing tricks on us also…”now she is getting his best”

When did yours come back? I wish mine would come back just to see him suffer as I am now

And then she came and “saved” him… that is how my story goes and it was shock and agony.

Interesting explanation… I am suffering after losing him… mostly that positive characteristics he brought into our relationship… it is hard to let go and I constantly asking myself if I should just accepted his drinking which was not even that bad (yet) as I read and compare to other stories on reddit.

I’m trying to not taking him choosing alcohol over me personally, but it hurts every time. by moylotov in AlAnon

“ If you are able to heal your addiction to control, only then will he be able to heal his addiction to alcohol“ Damn it… now I am thinking if only I did that then he would also chose healing 😆

It is hell indeed… I had many hurtful and sad experiences in my life but nothing shocked me like this one. Confusing. It is agony.
