When I tell her we don't, she seems upset. And when I explain to her why I don't think that'll work she tells me again what she wants, as if I didn't hear her the first time.
"We love each other so much. We got into this together and now we want to fight it together."
"We love each other so much. We got into this together and now we want to fight it together."
And when I repeated what I’d already told her she ended the call.
So why is it a bad idea to recover with our sweetheart? Or our spouse?
Our experience has been that the focus remains on the other person, rather than the dynamics of the disease.
When couples are in group together they tend to protect one another rather than expose their vulnerabilities.
We believe that if love is real it will survive a temporary separation while one works on their recovery.
