my husband has been in recovery for almost 2 years now, about 4 months ago, he started having a relationship with another recovering addict (14 yrs younger) now he moved out and wants a divorce because while he was working on his 4th and 5th steps, he realized how unhappy he has been. I did'nt think these kind of relationships in the program were acceptable. I've already accepted it, and am moving on but I am upset about the fact that the people in the program allowed this, I would think that something like that would make his recovery dangerous. any thoughts??

That was very uplifting.  It is true, that Alcoholics will blame anyone, but themselves.  If someone were to talk to my partner {s}, you would think I was...
