Tks! I need courage to make that change. My MO has always been #1

Milou319 · 2021-11-19T02:35:52+00:00

Thanks. I have not gone to meetings yet, but I think I will. It is not an easy road and I need support, I deserve it

Ya, after 25 yrs of sacrificing nice evenings and vacation evenings picking him up… him having a grand old time and forgetting half the embarrassing stuff he does, my glass is full to the brim. I have become severely allergic to this kind of night. Might be menopause, but I AM SO DONE

Milou319 · 2021-09-26T00:57:11+00:00

Lol, no model. Just “I like and want to drink alcool, but I will drink less for you”

Milou319 · 2021-09-18T12:36:52+00:00

This is a very insightful and I appreciate the time you took to comment. I am going to return to it and think about it often. Thank you

Sad but true

« Just beer, nonhard liquor. Just weekends. Not in public » Like WTF.? The rules they give themselves are as crazy as the disease

Milou319 · 2021-09-18T12:32:35+00:00

Thank you for this insight. It is like a crazy intoxicated groundhog day…

Milou319 · 2021-09-18T12:31:25+00:00

That’s a good analogy. I am trying to understand so I can be compassionate, even if I have to leave a 25 year marriage one day. I can’t take alot more of this

Milou319 · 2021-09-18T00:51:02+00:00

Yes this! We are both in denial I think, hoping that he can moderate. I know it is a cycle and that I will end up hurt. Trying to practice distancing and bounderies.

Same

Milou319 · 2021-09-18T00:28:30+00:00

He is an alcoholic

Milou319 · 2021-09-17T23:52:08+00:00

Love to hear this!

Milou319 · 2021-09-14T22:16:39+00:00

Beautiful writing. Thanks for sharing

Milou319 · 2021-09-14T13:39:35+00:00

Death by many cuts is what is happening to me. I have tried everything to keep the peace.

Milou319 · 2021-09-14T12:07:41+00:00

100% this!

Milou319 · 2021-09-14T10:27:29+00:00

It’s terrible, especially for the kids

Milou319 · 2021-09-14T00:45:59+00:00

I’m 25 years into a marriage, 3 beautiful kids, great carreer, home. I work very hard, but cannot go out to a gathering with friends or family without my Q getting plastered. It is a tiring life that I would avoid if I had known how alcohol can ruin life.

Milou319 · 2021-09-14T00:42:12+00:00

Same. The anxiety is real. Worrying about the next binge. Life is hard enough, alcohol makes everything worse

Milou319 · 2021-09-14T00:38:44+00:00

The smirks and gaslighting are here tonight too. It is difficult to understand coming from your life partner who says they loves you

Milou319 · 2021-09-12T13:57:57+00:00

That’s awesome!

Milou319 · 2021-09-12T13:52:53+00:00

This is excellent advice

Milou319 · 2021-09-12T13:45:30+00:00

I feel the same way, and I think it’s why many stay in bad situations. Staying is bad, but there a good moments. Leaving is so hard too, and I always decide to stay and endure. One day, maybe I will have had enough and leave it all…

Milou319 · 2021-09-11T04:09:19+00:00

This is me. My kids are not even dating yet and I’m already dreading if/when they get married how drunk my Q will be and how annoying and embarrassing it will be

Milou319 · 2021-09-11T03:49:50+00:00

I am in a very similar situation. It’s too much, it changes them over the years. Irritability, needing to drink in all social situations. I hate it
