[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 672611, member: 15801"] Ok I am having such mixed feelings. Yesterday he ended up wanting to get together later so we met about 4....we went and played pool (I wasn't sure how he would feel being in a bar but he said it was ok) and then we went to a meeting. It wasn't one of his regular meetings but I was glad he was willing to take us to a meeting....and then he was tired and didn't want to go out to dinner. This was kind of disappointing to me and also typical of him. He was pleasant enough though. So the good thing is I don't think he is using and I think he is still serious about recovery. We were able to have a good discussion about money....not manipulative or nasty. My worry is he doesn't have a job and I have no idea if he is looking as hard as he says he is. I am not sure how great the sober house is and how well he is doing there....he seems to have backed away from the support of the treatment program that's there and that worries me. And although our relationship is better than it was it is far from what I would wish for. I think he has a hard time being with us for long and there is a lot he doesn't share with us. We just have a lot of old baggage. That makes me kind of sad.... [/QUOTE]
