  opinions please

  by Ellie in

  would you all please give me your honest opinions.. if you were in a relationship with someone who through alcohol had let you down badly in the past, how would you feel about them going out a lot?.

  how much freedom would you give them?.

  would you think it reasonable for them to either go out without you once a week, sometimes staying out all night but certainly till very late?.

  You can't change another person. He/she has to want to change because change comes from within. The harder you try to change that person the more they will go in the other direction.

  The only control you have is of yourself...so you have to decide what your boundaries are.

  Thanks, Inquirer... I couldn't bring myself to type it....yuck!

  This past year I went to my 35th class reunion. By the way, I was wrong...they were not all drug addicts... Most turned out to be great people! ( By that letter you'd think I went to some inner city school...not true.. I went to one of the top rated high schools in the state) It's nice to get to know them on my own terms...instead of seeing them through watchtower eyes... I have some new friends after all these years...

  I'm really ashamed of what I wrote back then.... I was really drinking the koolaid.

  Fortunately I've changed a lot since then...
