I'm in need of some serious help here. My boyfriend is an alcoholic recently, we've moved in together. I'm finding it very difficult to deal with this. When he drinks he seems to be so different. When I ask him not to drink he says i'm bitching and it causes him to drink more. I Love him and I have no idea what to do anymore. I don't want to leave him and he doesn't want to get sober. I feel so lost and hurt. Could someone who has been in this same situation help me. I want to have a life with this man but, i feel like im competeing with a bottle. He drinks every day and I can not handle it. I think if I leave he will get worse. I'm just so hurt and feeling at the end of my rope.
If your at the end of your rope, imagine your future. He said loud and clear, that you make him drink more. Dont know about you but that wouldnt fly with me, He made a deliberate choise to drink. It's not too late to bug out now. Maybe have a talk and if its not working in your favor, I would leave. I have been there and didnt care for the surroundings. i was actually happier after I was out of the relationship. Welcome, keep posting...others will too.
Hi... don't stay with this man if his first love is alcohol- bc until he wants to get better alcohol will be his number 1 love. My dad was an alcoholic for many years. Then he became a dry alcoholic (meaning he still had the attitude of an alcohilic minus the alcoholic). After 25 years they are divorcing- she wasted 25 yrs of her life with this man. Although, he is sober and in recovery now- she lost the love for him many years ago. Don't let this happen to you... you have to take care of YOU... he will not get better until HE wants to. I will be praying for you and keeping you in my thoughts.
Love and God Bless,
