[QUOTE="WSM, post: 300682, member: 5169"] This one's alcoholism blindsided me. I didn't realize it until about 4 or 5 months ago. He can drink 16 oz of vodka and not appear to show it at all, and he's been hiding it for years. I have seen him buzzed, I hate to think how much he's drunk at that time. I know I can't change him, that's why I want out. My ex hit bottom and liked it. Government gives him about $3000 a month disability, so he doesn't have to work and can drink all he wants. But he had to live in a welfare hotel for about a year to get there. I will never marry again. I'm financially stable (or will be), don't have a good picker, my kids are about grown. I will be one of those who has a gentleman friend I see all the time but we live in our own houses. I can't go to alanon now because it would be on weekends or the evening and I need to be home because of difficult child. In a minute I'll good and see if there's an online group. You are right about a refresher. Mostly tho I just want out and all this to be over. (He got home and is being hostile, argumentative and just a plain butthead with a chip on his shoulder the size of NYC. Thank god he left again for scouts). [/QUOTE]
