Can I Meet Other Women Who Is In Love With An Alcoholic? Posted: 09-25-07 13:41pm
Its not so much for advice as perhaps a
sounding board or knowing I am not alone
and there are actually women who still
love these guys no matter what ? does that
speak volumes on us or very little? I am
undecided as the only person for us was my
brother who died. He was my rock and
inspiration he told me how to do and say
and be because he was one and knew the
answers to my questions alot like
shadowalker164 ....this much is true to
know I was not the only one when it got
tuff was a god send ....currently mine(my
virgo ) is still sober since may holding a
full time job again and life is better
...we are brand new to each other and we
have other issues but the drink was a wall
to get through but worth the struggle
....I don't kid myself .....it could all
end with one beer ......so I return here
so I can learn and become aware of what
might be my next todo.....and if the other
shoe never falls thats good to but I am
not a drinker so I have no idea what he is
going throw just know how much it costs in
money and relationship....the price is too
high and would prefer to never go there
again but at least I know the worst and
can appreciate the best he has in him to
give and be ....ok thanks for the read

My second husband was an RN and an
alcoholic and drug abuser. I spent 8 years
trying to help him. Instead he brought me
down with him. I was a daily drinker and
heavy. I did street drugs and even took
the drugs that were perscribed for him.
After 8 long years I decided that I did
not want to live like that anymore. Giving
our last $2.00 to him for a six pak. I was
a better person then that. So I finally
devorced him.
Every relationship in the intanse is
different and has to be dealt with
differently. You can't change him. He has
to want to change him self.
BTW: Last I heard about 4 years ago, he
was lying under a tree passed out by a
friends house.
