Well I'm tired of havin to be the RESPONSIBLE ONE and takin care of him when he's piss *** drunk. well tonight i had to leave work b/c his friend who was driving drunk was speeding and my b/f was with him. our friend got arrested and it very well could have been my b/f too!!! i just dont know what to do anymore about this. im sick of the drinking. i told him tonight flat out that he has to stop drinking PERIOD! He just kinda laughed and said that it was the cops fault and all of this was b.s. I told him that I'm tired of all this and he just got pissed b/c he thought I meant pissed that I had to go pick him up ...but its not even that. Any suggestions???

It sounds like he probably needs to get some manner of help. Let's face it: your boyfriend sounds like he's an alcoholic or is in the process of succumbing to alcoholism. Either way, from what information you have given here, he abuses booze. When he is sober and not hung over, you should talk to him about the issues you are having with his drinking and what it will likely do to him then, because he will probably be more reasonable. If he doesn't get some help, he will either end up dead or in jail. You might try attending a meeting for the friends and families of alcoholics, such as an Al-Anon Family Group, or trying to convince him that he should seek some help. Whatever you do, do it gently. People who abuse a substance can be a bit touchy when someone attacks their favourite poison.

You cannot change your boyfriend's habits, so you have to decide what you are willing to put up with. You can continue on as you have been, bailing him out of trouble, you can continue in the relationship and refuse to bail him out of trouble, or you can get out of the relationship. It's your decision - but you can't make him stop drinking/partying if he doesn't want to. Period. The only thing you can change in this situation is what YOU do about it.

leave him alone let him figure it out for himself life is not about stopping things entirely just strike a balance and ask him to think with his head

Find a new boyfriend if he doesn't get help for his addiction.

ya just watch out for him, as in if you care about him, you'll help him to remember and not make the mistake again.
