as a guy who has just stopped drinking ,i can honestly say if you want a man to drink ,just keep nagging and bitching at him and if you use the words you are not going out tonight i can guarantee you will see his butt walking out of the door ,i mean why bother to stay in if someone is being an a55hole to you ,when your mates up the pub make you feel wanted and they think your funny
its only when you are sober you can see things for what they really were
the a55holes were the ones who did not care if your relationship broke up and you died of liver failure
the one who you thought was the a55hole was trying to save your life coz she loves you ... i can see that now but for the life of me i could not then
