wow..am i glad i saw this post..i am going through something very similar with my adult alcoholic brother...he also had 3 dwi's and ended up in jail for a year about 16 yrs ago...he stopped drinking for 10 yrs and has been back at it for almost 6 now and worse than ever...started off he would only drink at home, then only drink if his wife drove, now he's back to drinking and driving everywhere...i pray for him every day that he doesn't hurt himself or someone else but as a 2 yr recovering alcoholic i need to distance myself and take care of me! my suggestion is that you do whatever you need to do for YOU!! let the bf live with the consequences of HIS actions...my family and i have committed ourselves to not helping him in any way other than he asks for recovery!
i hope this has helped! i wish you peace!
