A bottle and a glass a day

My DH has always worked in an industry where alcohol was the way to socialise. He would then drink on days off to ‘relax’. He is early 60’s now, so it’s gone on for a long time.
For the past 6 - 12 months or so his daily bottle of wine has become a bottle and another large glass most days. He’s never drunk/aggressive etc.
So the question is what do I do ?
If I mention it he will say he wants to cut down/stop but never does.
Live with it or leave I suppose.

Basically yes, live with it or leave. It’s not easy living with an alcoholic and it sounds like you’ve been in that situation a long time. Have you any support for yourself? Alanon is a support group for families.
