Thank you CS!
Hugs to you as well.
I hate that lingering alcohol smell ad the over-stench of gum and mouthwash trying to hide it. I did get to smell it when he or I picked each other up at the airport. I was luckier than most, mine never drank around me only because it was long distance and we only saw each other about 3 months of the year. I did have the pleasure of hearing his slurring words every night we were apart on the phone. Oh, and his stupid drunk texts and emails.
