These are your words and to me it doesn't really matter if he is drinking, in recovery, white knuckling it, good soul, or an evil jerk. If the above is true it makes no sense to continue to date him. Set your self, and him, free to be happy and be available for a relationship that works for you.
Dating is not a commitment for life. Dating is a commitment to not see other people while you get to know someone and decide if you want to spend more time, or a life time, together. If you do not want to spend more time with them, stop dating and move on.
I know it is sad...all endings are sad but without endings, there are not new beginnings.
