[quote=Anonymous]Wife of an alcoholic (20 years in recovery). Sweetie, you desperately need Alanon. Alanon taught me that you didn't cause it, you can't control it, and you can't cure it. That goes for the drinking. But it also goes for behavior too. You are still trying to control and fix this man. You are waiting for him to do this and that and this other thing for you. It's not going to happen. You cannot control him. You cannot cure him. If you are not getting what you want out of this relationship, you open up your mouth and say so and you work on yourself. And you can leave. Waiting for him to "think about what I might need to stay in this relationship" is sheer lunacy.[/quote]
