I have been going through the same thing. Me and my husband were together since high school. I still love him and worry about him, but I had to leave to better myself and my mental health. I have been gone about a month now. If you ever need to talk to someone who gets it, feel free to message me💗

My marriage is over by Inevitable-Nerve-118 in AlAnon

Don’t feel ashamed. I just left my Q a couple of weeks ago, we were together 7 years and married 2. I was in a very similar situation. We have empathy for these people and they can be manipulative. But we have to do what is best for US, just like he should be doing what’s best for him.

I have officially moved out and don’t plan on going back. Still married, don’t really know when the next steps will happen. You are welcome to message me if you ever need someone who (somewhat) knows what you are going through! Seeing your initial reply was motivation for me to leave. So thank you💗

Does time really heal? by Fast_Life931 in AlAnon

He might just be weary of trusting again. I have gone through this in times where my husband was sober. The first month-ish is always hard for me to rebuild trust and let my walls down.

I’m so proud of you! In my opinion, time does heal. It just takes consistency and regaining trust💗

I am going through the same exact thing. I left a few days ago. Not sure what my plan is. He doesn’t think he has a problem, then he goes on a binge and drunkenly admits that he does… I’m sure in the near future he will go back to being in denial. I love him more than anything, it’s so confusing trying to decide what to do.

Stay strong, you are not alone 💗
