But it wasn't JUST the drinking. being sober just made me realise how little we had in common (other than drinking and going out together) When I sobered up I just didn't want to live with him anymore.

As you know, I didn't stay sober and picked up again long after I split from him. I'm married to someone else now who also drinks but that doesn't bother me as we have more between us.

I hope this makes some sort of sense
