THIS!! I am an alcoholic and I am also telling you to get out now before you get in any deeper. You do not want to deal with this crap for the rest of your life. We are very good at dragging people into our crap. We lie, we manipulate, etc. We find people who will look after us and put up with our crap.

This is a problem I am going to have for the rest of my life and so is he. We do not get better overnight and it can take years of recovery to get yourself back together again.

There is no guarantees when you are an alcoholic/addict. I can't promise forever. For me it is one day at a time. I always have to be on guard that I don't go down that dark side again.
