I want to ask him to leave. Last night was the end for me.

I think.

I just can't stand weekends like this anymore. Every weekend the same.

I have had enough but what happens going forward? What if he doesn't go? I love him still but I can't take anymore. He is still my best friend but I hate from Thursday-Sunday and the drink/staying up until 4-5 am. We are supposed to be going abroad in 10 days time for a family holiday. Do I tell him I am on the verge of asking him to leave but see how the holiday goes. I worry he won't take me seriously? He hasn't any of our other conversations.

We have a small house that needs 2 salaries but the area is bad for selling. Please help me.

Please contact Al_Anon.

You need support to deal with your husband's drinking problem. They will help you. They have heard it all before.

And what Attila said.

Things may seem v grim at the moment but it is possible for them to improve. Wanting to save his relationship with you and his son may be enough to prompt him to get help to reduce/stop his drinking. So don't lose heart completely.

People do overcome addictions and manage them successfully to be safe with children. It does take time and support though.

Right now you are waiting for a response to your email and when you know his take on this, you can start to work towards next goal whether that is staying together or separating.

All the best op.
