Harley, please stay sober today. That's your first and highest priority.
Read through these forums, and I think you'll see a lot of relationships have ended during recovery. I'm pretty confident that I would not be in my marriage today had I not been a drinker during my 20s when I met and married my wife. That's not an excuse for me to cop-out today; I take my wedding vows seriously, and I am handling my marriage and other decisions that I made when alcohol had a too-terrible influence on my life.
But perhaps this post will encourage younger folks reading to tackle sobriety before entering into any lifelong contracts.
