I'm wondering about this. I think you are having a hard time with the whole "alcoholic" concept. Why do you think that is? Have you thought about that?
About you being alone, and her having a blast, realize that your alone time is yielding you some good stuff. Reflection and self-examination, time to develop some new friends or interests, and think forward to what you would have your life be if you could just choose one. She is missing out on many, many things. If she is indeed having a blast, it is superficial (given what kind of person I think she likely is). Who wants that?
