while my AH and I were dating and I was ignoring red flags, I was away for a weekend after an argument with him (red flag one, horrible argument), and he went out with friends and ended up getting a ticket for trying to drive a motorcycle drunk (he was just "moving" it..right... anyway this was in another country). He told me they breathalized him and he blew something ridiculously high, like so high it sounded absurd and impossible. I was pretty sure that meant passed out or dead for most people. I figured he was too drunk to remember the reading or it was broken. I should have believed it. My H drank a bottle of whiskey every night, sometimes more probably.. but we were bartending with a bunch of young partiers every night, I didn't really count or realize how out of control it must have been.
I'd be dead at any of the levels he can get to.
