We both drank a lot when we first met. I drank to much too. We spent a lot of time in bars and parties. As time went on I began to realize a couple things.
I was able to keep moving forward with school, life, employment. He had trouble with those basic things. He did not come with me to activities that did not include drinking. He didn't ever slow up. I was getting bored with it all and wanted to move forward with life and he talked about that but did not move towards that. He is older then I am do I should have seen how big that flag was. He did eventually quit the regular binging and went to daily drinking. Beer for birth, funeral, first b day, watching tv. Just constant and this seemed like an improvement at first and what I was used to as normal in my original family. But that catches up with an alcoholic and it is a hard way to manage a family. It is progressive for sure.
