Blame
In the first few years of my relationship, I blamed the alcohol for the problems. The bad moods, the temper, the other women-the alcohol caused everything. I remember saying "If he would just not drink..." Then he went to AA and stopped drinking for 4 years and I realized that it wasn't the alcohol that was the problem. It contributed to problems, of course, but it was not THE problem.

Hang in there. And keep blogging. I've been in 3 abusive relationships. No alcoholics but one drug addicted husband, one physical abusive husband and all three were mentally abusive. Not to mention my mother. I'm out now and am very happy. But, as you can see from my blog, I'm still on a journey. I blog about good memories but I also blog about the bad memories which seems to help. So keep blogging. Just wanted you to know you're not alone. Just remember, you cannot change the base character of anyone. They are gonna be what they are regardless. The real issue is how willing are you to put up with that person in your life for the rest of your life.
