Did the two of you begin drinking at the same time? Live together?
Very true, it is a helpless feeling when you can't protect the one you love. We live together yes.. we were both social drinkers when we met (alcoholics in disguise).. I would say I became the problem drinker first and I'm ready to quit first.. I know she will want to quit one day..
