Same story different day.  Larry came home from inpatient alcohol treatment on 3/25/05.  He said he was coming back with intentions of making things work between us. Honestly I was totally fine without him for that month.  Sometimes I thought about him......but mostly I was very content.  I did not have to worry about what I would find when I got home, from work, or whether he was driving my car drunk, I had true peace of mind.   I had told him that it would not be fair to come back and continue with the same lies and deception.  He said he understood.  I guess that was a lie as well.  Larry's alcohol was only one problem I had to deal with.  He was also sleeping with a woman he works with.  Her name is Cindy.  She is 45 years old and lives in Faribault, MN.  I also contracted Trich (STD) thru his sleeping with her.  Everytime I ask questions - regarding this bitch - he is very defensive of her....a sign that it is not over.  He also continues to call her.  Now, to top off everything - he apparently has interests in a woman from the treatment center.  Heidi.  I have heard conversations. I have heard conversations where he is telling others that he does not have time for my bullshit.  He doesn't care what I think.  He doesn't care how I feel.  So here I am once again.  Same shit - different day.  Larry came home from work at 7:40am  - said he worked 1/2 hour overtime - yeah whatever.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11873619-111306293659898051?l=mtluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mtluv.blogspot.com/feeds/111306293659898051/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11873619&amp;postID=111306293659898051' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11873619/posts/default/111306293659898051'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11873619/posts/default/111306293659898051'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mtluv.blogspot.com/2005/04/how-stupid-can-i-be.html' title='How stupid can I be?'/><author><name>MaryAnn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11669966187881002857</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11873619.post-111306197729877545</id><published>2005-04-09T08:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-04-09T08:52:57.296-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/108/5074/640/maryann%5B1%5D.jpg'&gt;&lt;img border='0' style='border:1px solid #000000; margin:2px' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/108/5074/320/maryann%5B1%5D.jpg'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is Me!&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href='http://www.hello.com/' target='ext'&gt;&lt;img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbh.gif' alt='Posted by Hello' border='0' style='border:0px;padding:0px;background:transparent;' align='absmiddle'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11873619-111306197729877545?l=mtluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mtluv.blogspot.com/feeds/111306197729877545/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11873619&amp;postID=111306197729877545' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11873619/posts/default/111306197729877545'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11873619/posts/default/111306197729877545'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mtluv.blogspot.com/2005/04/this-is-me.html' title=''/><author><name>MaryAnn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11669966187881002857</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11873619.post-111245097878518133</id><published>2005-04-02T06:04:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-04-09T09:28:33.086-07:00</updated><title type='text'>About Me</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#993399;"&gt;I am a fifty one year old woman who still can't get it right. I can't find that special someone who truly loves me. I can find love, someone to treat me right, but I am not excited by those men. What is it about me? I feel I am giving and caring and good in bed. I have patience and am a good cook. I am not all that bad looking, although age and time have taken a toll. I could stand to loose a few pounds. I have trouble making myself happy. I am always looking for someone else to make me happy - it usually never works. So now the love of my life ( who by the way, never truly loved me) is telling me those same old lies again.  We have been together going on eight years.  I still can't get it through my head - &lt;strong&gt;he does not care&lt;/strong&gt;.  He will do and say whatever is necessary to keep things going - for whatever reason.  He never means it.  He puts up with me all the while waiting for his opportune moment to break away.  I, on the other hand, keep thinking - if I stand by him - make him happy (which I cannot do, obviously) go through things with him - he will learn to love me - AM I AN IDIOT?????  THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN!  Larry does not now, and never will love me.  He said "Believe it or not - &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;I care very deeply for you&lt;/span&gt;".  Still couldn't use the word "LOVE".  Half of my life is over.  I don't have much time to be happy.  I certainly am not happy with these "bits and pieces" of affection Larry throws my way - just to keep things mellow.  So - I am settling and in a way so is Larry - neither of us are happy.  We just don't know what to do to get out.  I was almost out.  I could have absolutely refused to let him come back here after his treatment.  I tried to stay strong.  Then Larry said he had some things he wanted to tell me.  He wanted to talk to me.  Then, he said, whatever I decided - was on me.  He still hasn't talked to me - still hasn't said whatever it was.  I thought that maybe through a month of searching within himself and all the counseling he was receiving.....maybe he did have something to say -&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;NOT - It was just another lie!!!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11873619-111245097878518133?l=mtluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mtluv.blogspot.com/feeds/111245097878518133/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11873619&amp;postID=111245097878518133' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11873619/posts/default/111245097878518133'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11873619/posts/default/111245097878518133'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mtluv.blogspot.com/2005/04/about-me.html' title='About Me'/><author><name>MaryAnn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11669966187881002857</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
