For us alcoholics the booze is always #1 when we are actively engaging. God help anyone who tries to come between us and our booze! We like to tell you what to hear to get you off our backs.
This is just my opinion but honestly, until he is serious about quitting and getting help, you are wasting your time. He will be an alcoholic for life just like I will. I've been sober for over 8 months now, but I will always be one drink away from the dark side. I will always have to be vigilant and so will he if he decides he is going to quit.
I've always said that being with me isn't for the faint of heart that is for sure! I wish you luck and please remember that life is too short to take on his garbage.
