Thank you for the reply.
After much arguing this weekend things have finally settled down. Friday night at his request we went out and listened to some live music. He had 5 beers total and we went home. The next day at band practice he had another 5 or 6 beers. Saturday night was when things blew up for lack of a better term. Its a subject we have decided to agree to disagree on. He said he never wants to be that hooked again. Says he doesn't want to wake up each morning needing alcohol to survive he just wants to have a few beers once in awhile.
We did set some boundaries which no he didn't like but I'm not budging. At this point only time will tell what will really happen. I will say this much I promised myself a long time ago I would never stay in a relationship if it made me unhappy and although I love him very much, this situation is no exception. I really appreciate everyone's advice and support =)
