[QUOTE="Signorina, post: 527115"] Nancy, I think accepting the active addiction and dishonesty IS failure. To me, finding that acceptable means I have failed as a decent human being. Sure, I will love him (from a distance) FOREVER despite it. But I will NEVER find it acceptable. And honestly, trying to find a way to live with it and look beyond it was my downfall. I found more empowerment in acknowledging that I couldn't accept it and in labeling the behavior WRONG. Evil triumphs when good men stand idle. That doesn't mean I will kidnap him like I wish I could. But it means I will never pretend his chosen life is ok with me. [/QUOTE]
