Continue to drink and ruin my life. You need to help provide accountability to your husband. If he loves you he will understand. It would probably be better if you abstained as well. It might take a few days of a clear head but he will understand.
I am definitely quitting. Just realizing how desperately I want a drink is plenty of evidence enough that I should not be drinking at all. I want a couple blue moons so much.
I did confront him. He likes to use the excuse of his being a man and having a higher tolerance than me as a rational that he’s fine. He was drinking while I was at work and then would try to time it so I wouldn’t catch on...
But I straight up pointed out to him that 6 bottles in 2 weeks is not ‘normal ‘ alcohol use.
