it's the same with my ABF. i'm learning that he'll say anything just to slide out of responsibility. he'll lie, he'll make promises.... he says also he has a right to drink, as a working man. which of course, he does. it's his life.
mine only works when he has absolutely no money at all left and heavy debt, to the point that he has no other avenue but to work. most days, he doesn't work, but he still drinks plenty. he doesn't think he has a drinking problem at all.
when he is really trying to convince me to believe some excuse, he'll swear on his children's lives....and it's still a lie!
you say "he'll never change". well, they could, but in my opinion, they would have to get serious and ours aren't even admitting a drinking problem. so it appears that we are to let them hit the bottom for the sake of everyone involved. easier said then done but i'm going to give it a try.
you said you've been waiting 15 years. that's a long time.
