FWIW I don't think alcoholism is a mystery, I think it's an addiction. My over-wordy point with my previous post is that I don't think it matters whether someone else's behaviour occurs because they are an alcoholic, in recovery or otherwise, or not.
what matters is that the behaviour occurs, and from that whether I choose to continue to expose myself to it.
