Perfect! send AW over to drinking buddy's house. Problem solved.
That's a tempting thought. Drinking Buddy is a classic enabler, telling AW that we want to "control" her by not letting her drink. In one of our drinking-related arguments, I told AW that maybe Drinking Buddy could come and take care of her next time she fell and injured herself.
I think Drinking Buddy has issues of her own... apparently they feed on each other's anxieties and insecurities.
