I did tell him tonight as we were eating, just that I couldn't live with it anymore, it was having a bad effect on my mental health.
he said, "You know I'll never sit here and lie to you and tell you I'll never drink again."
He's being honest. SO many alcoholics lie to themselves and their loved ones and say they will stop and don't. It sounds like you both want 2 very different things for your lives.
I hope you feel like you have some clarity for your own life based on what he said...and knowing that it really only gets worse if they don't stop. You want something different than what you have, and you have every right to have the beautiful life that you deserve.
