Okay.... so I made a huge 1st step. I was so worried about talking to John coming for a visit. I thought that he would be so angry. i thought that we would fight. He really listened to me and understood that I am not strong enough to face that right now. We agreed that neither one of us is in a place to handle it emotionally and that we want whatever time we spend together to be meaningful. We need to progress individually more. I told him that I am getting support and joined a Coda group and he is supportive. He is back to AA and we are both going to read "relationships in recovery" and see if we can find some mutual ground to talk about our relationship.

Progress.... discussion without argument.... baby steps. Dont get all crazy about it. Its not the light at the end of the tunnel just yet.
