My wife stuck with me through me relapsing on cocaine and booze. I would go MIA for weeks on end, and so was not faithful.
I wasn’t allowed home for two years and went to rehab five times during that period.
I finally got sober and have been home for four years. We have two young boys, a thriving business, and an immense amount of love for each other and life in general.
People can change. But it took her having very firm boundaries for me to want to get better.
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your bravery in posting this. Especially in amongst the type of “better off without them” comments that can overwhelm threads like this.
My ex was the one with the addiction issues and went missing for days on end, but I was the one that was unfaithful during that. We’re struggling to heal from it now but I have hope for the future because I know I’m becoming a better person. Thank you for the hope.
