Hank you are so right that happier days will return but I have to divorce my husband of a room-mate for that to happen. We're so co-dependent we'd have to live under the same roof after the divorce. I'm looking forward to meeting a nice guy who will accept my mental disabilities. Do you think that could happen? My husband Jim is a former porn addict and rarely touches me. No sex. No affection. His third marriage and he cannot admit to any of his faults. I deserve better. Maria.

Hi Maria, it's tough to be co dependant in a bad relationship. I know for a fact that my wife and I are co dependant also, but ours has so much love involved that it's really not a problem. I am sorry that the love isn't there for you two. I don't know what the future holds for you or anyone but I do believe our goal should be to make ourselves whole first and foremost. We do not know our destiny so we need to just focus on what we can control, which is who and what we are and what we want to become. In other words, try to fix what is not functioning properly in yourself, work on yourself, physically, mentally, emotionally. In my case I have seen that when I did that at various times in my life, everything seemed to kind of miraculously fall into place.

Maria, I know what you face now in your life will be a big challenge for you. Life is no picnic, but it can be gratifying to experience some little personal victories along the way. Good luck! Hank
