running


Over the past3 and a half years I have told my A I love him and always given him hope that things will work out.
when we split I give him hope tell him I love him need space but will waite while he sorts himself out.
He never does and just manipulates his way back into my life.  Things have changed slowely as I am growing in alanon.
Last night my love for myself took over it has been growing very slowly since I entered the programme.
Plus i now have an awareness of my own addiction co dependency.
I told him he isnot changeing
I told him He takes from me and offers nothing in return.
I told him I carnt forget his infedelities
I dont trust him and never to contact me again.

I now need to use my tools and develop strategies to leave him to live his life and to live my own to the full.
Think I have finally handed him over

(((((((((Tracy))))))))))),

Congratulations for putting your own self-esteem and happiness first and foremost!

Acceptance is one of the hardest things to come by.

Glad you keep coming,
Maria
