( I sobered up, he is a heavy nightly drinker) I made myself known after he hung up and I told him that I have been listening for the last few minutes. The first thing he Asked, " what did you hear?" I said, " everything you said in the last few minutes." He said again, " like what?" I told him that I didn't want to talk about it while he was drunk. ****, I do not want to have a confrontation with him at this time, he is a big manipulator. I wanted to get more sober time under my belt. How do I handle this? I love him but I can not live with him if he does not stop drinking.
That's a tough situation Sisterbobby. My hubby also drinks nightly and I, too, want to get more sobriety under my belt before dealing with him on issues. And will never do it after he's starting drinking. Good luck and remember to keep coming back to SR for the support you are not getting at home.
