Absolutely done if DH doesn't quit drinking.

Went out for a meal and he's drunk too much. Just got up and pissed in the bedroom. He's still drunk so is acting like I'm being dramatic about it.

I can't make him understand until he's sober. He's just said I wouldn't even let him have a full wee.

I'm so fucking sick of him ruining things. He's always the one that throws up or makes a fool of himself.

Every time he says he's going to stop and he never does.

Tomorrow is Day 1. If he doesn't quit I'm gone.

Every happy memory is just tainted by his behaviour and the horrible shit he says when drunk (he's just said all I ever do is ask him for money!!)

Am livid

Leave asap and make a better life for yourself without this drunk in it BlossomWood.

What has kept you with this person to date?. Are you also tied to him financially, do you have children by him?.

If 4 cans a week is a binge we're all fucked.

OP I hope he takes you seriously today.

It is a binge, that’s why the drinking culture in the UK is so grim.

It isn't 4 cans a week, it's that he has them all in one sitting that makes it a binge.

It is not just the UK that people like a drink. Not everybody who likes a drink is grim. I think some people just don't get that other people can enjoy a drink without it being a problem.

@AnnaFF lots of people can enjoy a drink without it being a problem, but when OP's husband goes out, he isn't one of them. So there has to be change.

I stopped drinking in December. Definitely not an alcoholic but sometimes no end point. DH gave me no ultimatum but made it clear his tolerance had worn extremely thin. I had to do it for myself.

You knew you should have left him ages ago, yet here you are. Giving him yet another chance is just an absolute waste of your time. He is never going to stop being a problem drinker.
