I'll just say this; I had to re-evaluate ALL of my relationships once sober. Business,personal,family,ect.. I HAD too,to remain sober. Look..I'm sure you've hurt him with your drinking in one way or twenty..That sucks,but it happened. Us addicts want instant fixes. That's why we drink/use. With people and relationships it's not so cut/dry. You really have to work at it and take their feelings into account(this was hard for me because I'm a selfish drunk).
