I dont know for sure what you mean by this. I DO like to see him when he hasnt drank. And I do get to see him when he has had no alcohol for hours. We've done whole day trips on weekends where he doesnt drink until night time.
Some weekends we go out and he doesnt drink until we're home. Those days I'd see him from 2:30 or so until 8 or 9 with no alcohol. Tonight Im at his house. He was home around 2:30 and didnt open a beer until 6 or so.. had a few ( didnt count but I'd say surely no more than 3-4) and went to bed around 8.
I'll admit, myself, that all sounds excusing. But I just wanted to point out that it isnt that there is NO time where he hasnt had alcohol.
