A relationship must have foundations more solid than drinking together. The things you like that have included alcohol for both should still be enjoyable if only one is drinking alcohol. If not, than the central theme might be drinking and not the activity or talking or whatever. In which case there may be another problem altogether. Sometimes a partner is treatened by sobriety because on some level they may be questioning or feeling threatened by their own consumption. Talk to your husband about your feelings and fears, hopefully he will understand that you have more in common and more to share than drink. In any case don't give in. Find outside sober support. If hubby can't deal with it its his problem. Best to you.
