Bus or ride from Miami to Naples in Dec; Need info
I'm thinking of taking a bit of a vacation in December. We have two weeks off, and I haven't had a vacation in three years now. But, I need to know something.
Anyone know about a bus to get from Miami to Naples and then back again? I tried looking at the greyhound website, but, I don't know where anything is in Miami, so, it doesn't really help me much.
Anyone familiar? I'll be at the Port of Miami
1741 and 1751 Africa Way
Dodge Island
Miami, Florida 33132
That's where I"ll need to catch a ride from to get the bus to Naples. I suppose I may need to get a short bus to the Greyhound? Whatever. I just need some helpful information if anyone can help me??? :e058:
Shalom!

I finally realized that I have to take it slow - trying to detach from ABF
I have posted before, but accidentally posted on the wrong board (no recovery in sight here...). My bf is addicted to pot, alcohol and he just said something that makes me wonder if he is also doing drugs (that would explain a lot...).
I have been trying to set boundaries and mostly failed miserably. We have been together for 2 years and lived together for most of the time, but he was never nearly as bad as he is now. He is hardly ever home (he used to love being home with me) and he is drunk every day (that's extreme for him). I was away for the summer and things were great when I left (June): he was sober, going to treatment, started a job he loved, etc. We couldn't communicate much over the summer because I was in Africa and didn't have regular access to phone and internet. When I came back, I came back to this and I did not see it coming. He is a mess. And I think he is also doing drugs...I will have to inquire about that tomorrow...
Every time he is drunk I promise myself that it's the last time I am putting up with it. I told him about boundaries, but then we both ignore them. I continue to let him in, to clean up after him, to get him up for work, and even to give him money (what in the world am I thinking??) although he makes more than I do.
But now I am determined to try little by little. Two days ago, for the first time, I did not wake him up and he was late for work. Today he came home drunk and for the first time I did not yell, cry, and show resentment (except when he wanted sex, but even then I politely told him no). What is interesting to me is that he is now angry with me, telling me I don't care. He is never like that when I am emotional, angry, and sad when he comes home drunk. Then he is sweet and guilt-ridden (or so it appears). Today I let him in, prepared the couch, and asked him to please lay down so I could go back to what I was doing. And he is mad at me! It is so strange.
I know all of this still sounds pretty pathetic, but it's huge for me.
