[QUOTE="Sam3, post: 725276, member: 19290"] Sounds like your son was hoping to rescue but otherwise healthy. I was speaking to a situation when the guys aren’t themselves emotionally healthy and seek out women who enable that or make that seem ok. I don’t like the idea of a man exploiting anyone, but especially a vulnerable woman in that way In fact in a very non-alanon move, I allowed myself one phone call with my sons ex to let her know I don’t think my son is good for her at the moment —but hopefully one day he will be again. I also allowed myself to text my son once to suggest he man up as it relates to her. — either sober up and be the strength she needs, or leave her alone until he’s in a healthier place. [/QUOTE]
