Binge drinking doesn't remain binge drinking. It's a phase. My husband was a everyday drinker before he met me - I now see it from his credit card statements and the number it's checks he wrote out to this one restaurant where he used to get his food from everyday. Apparantly the guy was also supplying him with alcohol. You don't run up a 40 dollar bill for one persons food every other day at a cheap fast food Chinese place. He cut back and became a weekend binge drinker when he met me and it continued for a bit till he was back to hiding and buying alcohol on his way from work . **** bottles . One shot of vodka on his way back from work - wife will never know - he'll have the buzz and then weekend is around the corner to binge drink a bottle of vodka right? Whar are you willing to give up to get back with him?
