Brief history as I'm abroad and ignoring DH.
I split from ex-H in May 2014, we share custody of two boys. I met new partner August 2014, we married last autumn.
He had an alcohol problem when we met although it was months before I realised. It is due to post traumatic stress disorder from working in emergency services. He had a bit of a breakdown then recovered after therapy and time off work.
Since then he has gone back to drinking a few times, going to extreme lengths to hide it, including driving me to the shops drunk to stop me from suspecting, even though he'd lose his job if caught, never mind the risks to me and others. After last time, I made it clear if he touched alcohol again it was over.
Now we are abroad with kids, a few days into a week all inclusive, and he just necked a beer, passing it off as a non-alcoholic beer. He knew instantly that I didn't believe him and has asked if I want him to leave, and/or leave when we get home etc. I'm ignoring him and posting this.
I'm financially and emotionally dependent on him. I love him. I moved my kids into a house he bought for us, in a new area, new school, I couldn't afford to live there without him.
It was only one beer, but that's how it always starts. What do I do?
