Eek, hate is a strong word.

Really it all depends on what your intent is. Are you hoping to detach from him emotionally so that you don't continue to get hurt? Are you trying to punish him in the hope that he will change?

Detaching is about saving yourself and taking yourself out of the insanity and applies 24/7. It's really just an interim coping mechanism, until you decide or are ready to make a decision.

You didn't Cause it, can't Control it and can't Cure it. So if ignoring him the rest of the time is supposed to in some way change his behaviour, unfortunately that probably won't work at all.

If you are not planning on leaving the relationship, why would you pull back? You are either in the relationship or you aren't really. Now, if he is actually drinking/drunk, that's a different kettle of fish, you might want to exit the room/house/hotel room when that is the case, if it bothers you.
