The day after I had a long talk with a close friend who was an alcoholic (dry for 7 years) & now know that even a couple of drinks effects my personality in an adverse way. Honestly it was hard news to hear from such a good friend, but when confronted with the evidence he provided, I had no choice to agree. Why I refused to listen to when my girlfriend first raised the issue, well in my case it was a matter of pride.

Also to clarify things a little, I wasn't drinking a 2-3 beers a night, if I bought a 6 pack, I drank a 6 pack.
