Was this in an argument that he was losing by any chance? I know when I was drinking I'd use any bulls**t argument for a bit of point-scoring.

My OH is often a little put out that he can't drink quite so much without feeling like an old soak now that I'm not drinking with him. He used the same kind of wingey-whines about me stopping a LOT at first. In the end I told him my sobriety was about ME not about him, and that as much as I'd prefer to do it with his support, if the only other option was without it, then that's what I'd do (not while we were arguing - the next day when I was calm and he was sober). Now I think he's got more used to it and is less threatened by it all.

Remember though. Being angry with him (no matter how justified) is not good for your sobriety, so best to work through that resentment.

Good luck x
