There is a book "The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands" that has really helped me put things into perspective. Stop looking for what you don't have, and consentrate on what you do have.

You say that you both stopped drinking and you think he may have started again. Are you both going to AA? Are you getting into any sort of support group? (Besides us silly!)

Things to think about:

If you feel he isn't as close to you as he used to be, what have you done to make him want to be closer?

Have you told him how much he means to you?

Is there something he likes to do and does well? Do you give him compliments about it?

Have you done anything to make him feel important to you?

If he was abusive, refused to work, or is cheating then by all means leave, but if you are just bored, or you fel you need to change him to make you happy...

Try to remember what it was that caused you to fall in love with him in the first place, try to recreate the romance, work on the marraige, surprise him with a love note in his lunch or a candle lit dinner. Whisper naughty things over the phone and giggle like a school girl telling him to hurry home. If you lift his spirits he will in turn be the man you want him to be and he will fall over trying to please you. Super clean the house and add scented candles for a romantic scene for when he comes home, maybe put on something slinky... (cats in a seperate room from candles)
