Pros:

  1. We genuinely love each other
  2. We've been together 20 years
  3. He is kind to me
  4. He accepts me for who I am
  5. We make each other laugh

Cons:

  1. He is an alcoholic and acknowledges it but does nothing to help himself recover
  2. He has no direction, no permanent job, earns very little in the little work he does do, but does nothing to seek work or find a new direction. (Complains about it constantly though)
  3. He is addicted to his phone / computer / iPad and would rather play games on them than interact with me and our dc
  4. He is very short tempered with the dc to the point where everything he says seems to be negative some days
  5. We have large and crippling debts which we are both responsible for creating and neither of us seems able to deal with this problem head on.

Trying to decide if the pros outweigh the cons. Or vice versa Sad

Squirellz - good point, however we live in the flatest city in the world I think so kind of unecessary, he learnt to drive somewhere a bit more hilly so was taught to put the car in geat, ha,ha!
