DP in the pub a lot...

Ok, i'll try and keep this short. It seems to me that DP spends a lot of time (and money!) in the pub - last week:

Friday 3-6.30pm
Saturday 2-9pm
Sunday (with me and DD, 17 months) at charity do 2-6.30pm
Then he wanted to go out on his own again later (I blew gasket)
Monday 3ish-5pm (i blew bigger gasket)

Most of the times, weekdays, it is before I get back from work/nursery...and I try to get my own time back, but if I went out as much as him we would NEVER be togehter. He says he never stops me going out, and neither he does but then it's academic as I don't want to go to the pub as much as him and never would.

He gets really defensive if I challenge him and refuses to acknowledge that it is having a negative impact on our family.

Has anyone else have a similar experience? And how do you handle it?
