NO MORE ALCOHOL PERIOD AT MY HOME!" i told him he could get mad, leave or whatever he wanted to do. I STUCK TO MY GUNS! i wont say he wont try to sneak some in, but if he does-he goes. and i mean it! i had a flat tire on my car and he changed it. he said "but i changed your tire and i deserve a beer". i said "no, i cook for you, wash your clothes and keep the house spotless,and i dont "deserve" a beer! i dont need a 'reward" for what i do. thats just life. buck up and face it!" im proud of myself for finally ONCE in my life not backing down and giving in to someone!! (sorry about the typing, i cant see too well anymore even with glasses). thanks guys for listening!!!
