co dependent Reply to this Comment Have you gave it a thought that maybe the alcohol is the problem and not your relationship, what would your relationship look like if both of you guys stood abstinence of alcohol? Try to stop drinking and if you can't on your own seek treatment. Practice communication skills and stop saying hurtful things to each other when you guys come to dissagreements.

It speaks of topics like heartbreak, codependency, love addiction, romance, acoa, alanon, coda, and grief. It's more or less focused on unhealthy relationships and the journey of working through those relationships. Feel free to check it out and contact me: www.Not2bforgot10.wordpress.com/ Thanks!
