So, my A/C-addicted hubby was served with divorce papers yesterday. Not the reaction I was expecting. He came home in a cocaine-induced mood (which is his only GOOD mood).
He was rather pleasant about the whole thing. Told me I was justified. He was at fault, he screwed up, he'll do whatever I want, blah, blah, blah. He only wished I hadn't hired a lawyer and that the paperwork didn't mention his substance abuse. The truth hurts I guess.
He says he would like to remain friendly through this. I would like that too... but... I'm a bit skeptical about what will come out when he's straight again. He's always much nicer and more agreeable when he's doing coke. As soon as he's come down things might be different. I don't know. I'm feeling stunned and confused this morning!
Just keeping you posted! Artygirl

Sounds like my AHsober. Every other interaction is pleasant and every other interaction is difficult. Almost predictable in its unpredictability. I think that it means we are dealing with a disease. You are still making great progress inspite of it all.
You sound strong and peaceful despite this situation. It always is such a better situation without anger and spite while splitting. I hope things go smoothly for you and my prayers and thoughts are with you..
