You are absolutely right in your post to me yesterday.  Thank You for the advice.  I don't want to do something that I will regret.  A good friend at work warned me that I shouldn't make any decisions right now.  He said that people may take advantage because I am vulnerable and then I will end up in a worse situation.  He is right and so are you.  And I do have to be responsible for so many things.  I, too feel like a single parent without the benefits.  I get tired of always being the responsible one.  Sometimes I would like to just let my hair down adn have fun.  There are times I am actually jealous of husband's addiction because he has drugs to numb pain and sees the world through rosey glasses while I deal with things without the beneits of drugs and alcohol.

Me too. It is like we get all of the responsibiltiy and they get to be an eternal kid. Peter Pan?

Let your hair down, you are supposed to enjoy yourself and be happy.
