I am a recovering alcoholic and I know that, for me personally, when I began to hide bottles that was when I moved from occasional recreational drinking to serious problem drinking. When my wife began to find them I deflected and she was placated at first, but eventually she faced the reality of the situation and began to see what was really happening. If he is hiding bottles there is a distinct possibility that he is drinking more than you are aware. I believed that I was very clever when I was actively drinking, but I mistook cleverness with manipulation and deceit and I think this is something that is true of many alcoholics.

Instead of getting upset with the situation, which you clearly seem frustrated and angered by, examine what you are willing to tolerate and what boundaries you can set to protect your own sanity. Everyone deserves happiness, so don't allow yourself to accept a situation that is causing you anger and frustration.
