Asked husband to move out. 

Well....i found out that my husband whom is a SA has never really been sober since he started SAA group. he has done nothing but lie to everyone.....i am so incredibly disappointed for our children, him and me. He also lost his job on Friday as well...so now i have all the bills and Christmas 2 weeks away. The kids are devastated that he is gone. I didn't ask to leave bc he lost his job...it was because he is not even trying to recover. he said he was making progress because he was going to meetings and had a sponsor...but his behaviors have not changed at all. He said he has not been to ABS's and not chatted on line but he is still doing everything else...i don't see that as progress...especially since he wanted me to join in his 3 month sobriety happiness when it was all a lie. he needs some serious help. i just didn't know if i should let him stay through the holidays for the kids or just ask him to leave. it was a hard decision to make....i hope i made the right choice. the kids are upset to say the least....but bedtime is going to be traumatizing i think for them...to not have dad there to kiss them good night like we always do. I am trying so very hard to be strong for the kids and not let them see how sad i really am. it is one thing to divorce and leave someone when you have grown apart and you don't love them as a spouse anymore..but i still love him so much. i know it may seem odd to say that after all he has done..but he was molested as a child until 14 yrs of age so i understand how he got to this place..i just wish he could find his way back to me and the kids. i am so lost without him. any helpful advice or tips or anything would be appreciated....this site has been a Godsend to me lately.

You made a tough choice! You remember the saying "tough love"! This just may be whats needed for him to actually help himself! You know already you can't do it for him, so maybe this will force his hand, I hope so for you and your kids sake! I hope it all works out for you...
