Divorce
Quote From: realgood2u
Was hubby married previously? If so how long, why did they divorce and how long was he single?
His "problem" never really went away. You closed your eyes and he got better at hiding it.
As another member says alcoholics are deep into denial. Drunken demands will not improve your marriage. He thinks sex is the cure. It is NOT. I know because my mother lived this for 40 years.
I think it is at least time for legal counsel so you know where you stand. You cannot love him enough to make him change. HE has to do that. And as Dr P says you are better off healthy alone than sick with someone else.
My favorit Maya Angelou quote-Always believe someone when they show you who they are, because they always show you. Yes he has been. 4 times. Shortest one 1 year longest 28 years. I can't get a straight answer as to why and he says he doesn't know just that she left one day. My opinion she got tired of the affairs he was having and the drinking. No single very long in between each marriage. I have never heard the quote from Maya but I like it also.
