[quote=Anonymous]I guess I don't see it as your husband keeping a secret - it was not his story to tell. You say FIL had not been drinking for your entire relationship yet you expect your DH to tell you about past behavior that (obviously) changes your perception of your FIL? They believed he had made changes that would continue. They were wrong so NOW is the time they need to talk about it. They are embarrassed and your anger is certainly making that worse. AS for the cover-up, well that's another story. Emphasize to DH that it's out there now and people suspect something is up. Honestly I think folks would be more sympathic if they knew the man was fighting an addiction vs. just behaving like a jerk![/quote]
