Ok I have been with this guy since end of June but my problem is his drinking. He complains to me after he drinks that he never wants to drink again but he does. He always tells me to not let him drink again but How can I stop him.Its not my place to tell him to stop I can only be there to support him. My brother is also starting to get into the drinking pretty heavy too. Every time they are together they drink like fish. Should I leave him or talk to him and let him know it really is bothering me. HELP

I dates a guy who was alcohol dependent and he was very abusive. There wasn't a week that went by that I wasn't bruised or hair pulled. I was also thrown out of the home with nothing on many occasions.
I actually would have stayed as I loved him but he did meet another lady on tinder so it was time for me to go any way. If you love him and can see a change in his drinking habits that will improve then stay if not let him be someone elses problem

Will you love him if he never stops drinking. If the answer is no then you should leave him. If you can still love him even when he is drunk or neglecting responsibilities because he drank, then stay with him. Just realize that it will be a very tough road. I married a man that drank quite a lot and I thought it was because he was young and in college. Turns out that he was really an alcoholic. It took 10 years for him to quit. So many downsides during the drinking years. Fear of what I would come home to, disgust with the way he acted, embarrassed, stressed, alone in the world. But I loved him and knew it was worth it. IT took our daughter being born to make him quit. Be very careful because it is a very difficult life if you choose it.

I'm not really sure how long you've been with this guy, but if you really care about him, suggest maybe attending an AA meeting. If he feels reluctant about it, tell him you'll go with him...and go with him. (By the way, you might want to include your brother in this as well). Family's support is very important in difficult times like these. These guys may not even want to accept they are alcoholics, but it's part of the disease.

it could worry me too. i for my section do not see the way it fairly is extra decrease priced than Ovaltine. From what I understand from my friends with toddlers, toddler formula is like $25 in keeping with can. i'm particular Ovaltine is extra decrease priced than that for the time of any different case mothers could probably in simple terms save feeding their teenagers toddler formula until they have been older if the nutritional content became comparable. i've got additionally heard that toddler formula supposedly basically tastes stable to toddlers. i don't understand...it in simple terms sounds strange. although, it could be much extra strange and a different deal breaker if he nonetheless drank it out of a splash one bottle!
