Hey there, I’m sorry the man who took a vow to honor you isn’t doing that. It’s hard enough to keep kids on a good path with the outside world constantly getting in the way but to face it in your home really is a difficult situation. Maybe you can remind him of his duties as husband, father and man. I’ll not voice my opinion other then this, as I havent been asked. I’m sorry your feeling like this but it will pass…yes?
Don’t be sorry. Good morning friend
Darling that is absolutely not right. It was a disrespectful gesture especially done with your little one present. I’m sorry and angry that you are hurt. Let me tell you something… when I was still drinking, about a year and a half ago, few months before I got sober, we had a quarrel with my husband. Both were wasted and I said some really bitter things at him cause he had had an affair with someone earlier that spring. He couldn’t cope verbally and started to strangle me. I’m half of his size and I knew he could kill me if he wanted. Kids were inside the country house at that moment. He then released me and walked off. And I cried like a siren, because of disappointment and feeling of something ending. I thought we had been on the same side, friends and strong together, whatever comes. And it was gone. My older girl found me crying and drunken. She comforted me and took me to bed. Boy do I feel bad telling you this… That anyhow was a start of a long process. We went to see a marital councellor, I reached out for help with my addiction and help for my girl with her deep anxiety. Today I’m sober, we re separated and my girl gets the help she needs.
I believe you have some difficult decisions/actions to make and take. The most important thing now is that you take care of you, your sobriety and the little guy. Hugs and all the strength in the universe. Love you and am here for you
Reminds me of French art at the beginning of the last century. Man Ray, Marcel Duchamp…
Just to cheer you peeps up a little… daily greeting I suppose is open for all feelings and even for not feeling anything at all. This is a safe place to vent everything. So, I have this thing about Italian language, food, films etc and as the darkest feature, music called italo disco… here you go with Umberto
Hugs, thanks Hanana for sharing this. It can’t have been an easy time. Even more reason for us alcoholics to drink yeah?
You are a strong lady.
Geoff, everyone staying sober today is strong and by every sober day getting stronger. If my experience will help someone to see his/her situation a bit more clearly I’m happy to open up. Otherwise it’s just past things. Pain doesn’t make one a better person, but one can learn from it.
I know. And you have shown very well that that is possible, even with the stuff you are going through now.
I just shared at my anniversary aa meeting that I’m rather at this point now sober than drinking and without my present challenges. That simple.
I knew there was a reason why we get on H. Similar mental outlook.
Better sober today with today’s problems, than not.
You had today’s zapping?
So good to hear that and good to be friends with you G. Yep already back at home
Cool. On the sofa, legs up and coffee made.
How did you know?
Miss banana so glad your out of that relationship now, it sounds like a very stressful time for you all. Hugs. How are you today, sorry I’ve been really distracted and not about too much, miss you guys.
@Salty sorry your hubby thinks that’s acceptable, I have been through similar with my ex. Feel free to msg me anytime. Hows your tiny human doing?? I’m getting ready to make this darn tractor cake later in the week wish me luck.
