(In Canada, call 1 -855-232-2367) Wife reflects on long marriage to alcoholic DEAR ABBY: I have been married for 39 years to a kind, supportive and loving man. We are both retired. He stays fit with daily exercise, reads, keeps track of our financials and is fun to be with. However, he’s a high-functioning alcoholic. His personality bends to unsavory during most of the evening hours. He will never go to coun seling, and support groups for me are not close by. He was always the bread winner and provided a good income for our fami ly. He was also a good father to our two sons. (I suspect that our 34-year- old son may also be an alcoholic.) Over the years, I have gone from compas sionate to furious about my husband’s drinking. He often hides how much he consumes. I never know if it’s just the two to three nightly beers or the hidden bottle of wine or whiskey in the trash. I recently dis covered he also has been smoking pot. I used to be a social per son. We have the opportu nity to travel, but it was disastrous in the past. How should a wife deal with an alcoholic in the home? — OVERWHELMED IN FLORIDA OVERWHELMED: You can’t fix your husband. Only he can do that IF he’s motivated. A spouse like you should join a support group for the families of alcoholics. If one isn’t geo graphically convenient, understand that meetings are also offered online and can provide help and sup port. Consider asserting some independence and stop allowing your husband’s problem to isolate you. Pursue some of your own interests. Because you would like to travel, join a group and go without him. It could provide a much- needed break from the stress you are experiencing. I hope you realize that at some point you will have to decide whether you are willing to spend the rest of your life hunkered down to DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips avoid the nastiness of a bel ligerent drunk every eve ning. If not, you can talk to a lawyer about a separa tion. But that may be a dis cussion for another day. DEAR ABBY: I had a very good relationship with my daughter-in-law. In fact, I treated her like my own daughter and show ered her with gifts. People told me she’d been gossip ing about me and saying how much she dislikes me. I feel betrayed, so I have distanced myself from her and no longer want her near me. AM I a vindictive moth- er-in-law? I love my grand son, but I need my privacy, too. What will I do during holidays when family needs to get together? I no longer trust her, and I cannot wear a fake smile. Am I overre- acting? — DISILLUSIONED IN THE WEST DISILLUSIONED: If what you were told about your daughter-in-law is true, you are not overreact ing. However, you won’t know if the information is accurate or in what context something may have been said until you have been told by HER. This is why you need to have a face-to- face conversation in which you ask directly if what you heard was true and if you have done something that upset her. Then listen.
