Backwoods, I am not able to add much more to what these three very wise folks have already said. So many of us walk this earth harboring very old emotional wounds, unhealed injuries from years gone by. I pray for your entire family healing and happiness and love.

Just a text away if you need anything.

In my prayers as well sir BW901.

thanks everyone, It means a lot to have this much support in my corner, for 300 days and the personal issues
Whoa wait a minute, I almost missed congratulating this badass quitter! Keep getting after these groups and help keep them on track. One of these days, they will thank you. Well probably after several cussings, oh well there only words! Quit on my friend and remember, it's not always about the thorns on a rose but the smell is worth the prick!

It has been a rough week, Not Nic wise I have had no cravings had a little funk to start, Monday but thats nothing new when you are driving 86 miles to work and back everyday.

Then came Tuesday, I Have been with my wife for 8 years and I have been drug through hell with her. She has been homesick, regretful of marrying me, regretful of staying for so long. It has been a struggle lately with her, I have stuck with a women who hasn't wanted to be with me since 2010. A women who utilizes me as the convenient person who will not leave, She has her "friends" that are their for her emotionally and she has left me on the back burner for most things.

This all changed the last 4 days and it has been rough, Basically the women I married has hidden alot of her life from me and never has she wanted to or told me about it. She finally came clean (she hasnt been cheating at least Physically) she has been using people in her facebook world to replace me emotionally and to be the one she talks to when times are rough. She came clean about her families past and how hard it has been and how emotionally wrecked she is and the way she was treated for years by her mom and step dad. She threatened to leave, she has threatened everything at me the last couple days, but here I sit.

this has probably been some of the roughest days within my quit, She is seeking therapy and she is working on figuring out how to commit to me but damn it has been hard and the part that is a win is I have not craved at all during this time.
So sorry backwoods, that is a heart wrencher.
I hope you guys can work through it now that its out in the open. Lots of us hid the fact we dipped for years, i feel free and more apt to witness about my quit now with those i kept it from.
I'm proud to call you quit brother, that's some adversity to fight through. Stay strong, stay the course, stay connected.
Backwoods from my experience with my wife she had some very bad things that happened to her when she was young and it still rears its ugly head after 33 years. It's hard my friend and I contemplated to leave several times but it seems to always work out. Its hard my friend for you and her. It takes special kind of people to work through it but it's not impossible. Don't give up if you truly love each other. Prayers to you my friend.
I appreciate it all, It is rough we hit patches here and there where everything is fine and runs smooth then times like now where it has been hell since Tuesday and my body finally shut off today and made me sit inside all day. I haven't given up on her yet and will not like her family did to her so many times in the past, It just makes some days more rough then others, luckily i sustain from alcohol when these things happens and I keep my head clear and free. She knows that with our four kids and how much I have grown with her over the years I am not going anywhere anytime soon.

Tonight has been better, first night where I am not in a deep emotional conversation with her, She calmed down and is working with an actual friend of hers who know how she is, She tries to push me farther and farther away because something in her past flared up with her mother.
I will keep her, and you, in my prayers brother. Affairs of the heart can be the most difficult things we have to deal with on this earth. I pray you both get through this and come out stronger and more deeply committed to each other once you do.
thanks brother, Its been an emotional rough 5 days and luckily we kept it away from the kids but i tell you if it wasn't for posting roll everyday there is no doubt I would of caved.
