[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s so unfair to your kids to do this. Kids deserve to grow up in a loving environment, not a home seething with animosity and resentment. Please rethink this.[/quote] I’m the PP with the high functioning alcoholic husband. Wanted to give one last thought. My house isn’t seething with resentment. We get along fine. There is no fighting. Sometimes pleasant actually. But for the most part our romantic relationship is just comfortably numb. He isn’t helpful or all that present and when I get angry or resentful I remember the words of my therapist: You don’t get to be angry with him, for your choice. I choose to stay, I choose to be in the same house as my small children 100% of the time. I choose to keep their safety top of mind. I don’t get to feel like a victim because I have choices and this is my choice. One day it will be my choice to slap him with divorce papers but for now, this is what I chose. Tough pill to swallow but does help. [/quote]
