Oh gosh, how many times did he try to tell me I was the one responsible for making sure he never drank?
"You didn't remind me that I don't want to drink anymore!"
"But I still drank today!
Obviously you weren't
forceful enough!"
"I'm not going to AA! I'm not an addict! And all those people in AA
are addicts! They're all addicted to meetings and coffee! They just go to meetings all week! I'm not giving up
our weekends for that! You want to cancel our whole vacation, so I can be one of the AA-guys?"
"Thanks for going to Al-Anon for me, StarCat, but I'm never going to drink ever again, so you don't have to go anymore! Isn't that great?!?!?"
"You're making an ******* out of me!"
As he's stumbling, drunk, across the parking lot at work, screaming obscenities in my direction, while I'm just casually walking back to my desk and saying hello politely to the people I pass while heading inside.
No, XABF, I think you're doing that
