Hi Incognito

Many of us here are alcoholics but sadly that doesn't mean we have a crystal ball with regards your partner.

I was, to all outside appearances, 'very functional' too, but when I lost control I lost it very quickly...and irreversibly.

That doesn't mean the same will definitely happen to your partner, but it does mean you have to consider that as one of the many possibilities.

Only you can know whether your partners drinking is a deal breaker or not.
Have you ever thought of voicing these concerns and asking him to stop drinking?

I encourage you to check out our Family and Friends Forum too - you will find a lot of people in there who've been what you're going through too.

I hope we can help you find some answers
