In AA there is a spectrum of people with all kinds of stories to tell. Eventually, you'll hear your own (or your bf will hear his own) story told by another and another and another.....
We all have our stories to tell.
If we could control the amount we drink, we wouldn't need to ask for help....
Abstinence is best. I wish you and your boyfriend well!
Hugs,
