Yep - you let them cross several boundaries there. It's not easy by any stretch of the imagination, but necessary in some cases. You may simply need to just tell them that they are welcome in your home if they respect your decision to stop drinking and also respect your request to keep your home alcohol free. If they balk then they probably aren't really friends you need around anyway.
