It's me, Christine. Otherwise, known as Catherine. I just redid my my account so I would be honest with everyone.
Somehow, the truth always sets you free, huh?
CAM is my initials & I also use this this acronym when in the chatroom. I go by Cam0914 (the numbers are my only child's birthday).
Doll, I read your post & can really relate. My significant other is a flaming drunk--five years in this relationship & not one step closer to a commitment then in the first year. I've been learning to detach & lately, it's been working for me. I have my path to travel & he has his....my HP will take care of the rest. It's just too much for one person to take on.
I'm staying sober & just taking it one day at a time here. I have to get to a meeting, but when I'm ready, I will know....until then, I pray for guidance. I know I can get caught in a rut if i'm not too careful.
Peaceful wishes to all of you & thanks for being here.
Glad my guy is not a drinker, he's just a typical man, but on the other hand if he were, it would make my decision an easy, no brainer........good luck to you......
Doll
