[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't stage manage their lives and her addiction. Even if she went into Rehab, she could have many setbacks. She might have tried sobriety and failed. He may be a drinker too. You don't know what's going on there.[/quote] OP here-I think she is co-dependent on him for sure. But I don't think he depends on her a whole lot. I think he doesn't want to throw away the marriage and that he loves her. I don't think he has a drinking problem at all. He's not the kind of person that takes advice. He often marches to the beat of his own drum. This is why I find this thing so perplexing. The fact that he listened to us and decided to stay. It's almost as if he's trying to get her to a place where she becomes a bona fide alcoholic so he can feel "justified" in leaving her. Maybe I'm Reaching here...but I'm so confused. To see my brother go from angry and tearful to this all in a matter of a few months is just ..weird. [/quote]
