Are any brain ready to handle that two realities?
Are a heart ready to cut itself in pieces for no reason?
Just remember that she is indeed an addict. It may appear on the surface that she is just "choosing" alcohol over you, but in reality, her brain is doing that for her. The craving for a drink trumps everything. She (to her mind) cannot be around someone that will try to stop her from having those drinks.

So it's not black and white. Could she go to rehab and attempt sobriety? Sure, anyone can - but when your brain is telling you that you can't and in fact shouldn't! that's also a tough call to make.

Eventually, maybe, she will make a decision to quit, maybe not, but it really isn't simply a choice between a great life with you and a glass of beer.

All that said, let's pretend she's not an alcoholic. What if she is just a person that likes to go out on the weekend and let loose and drink the weekend away while dancing on tables. If you were that person and the person you were with said, umm I think that's a bad idea, let's stay in and watch movies or go to dinner - is that a good match for a relationship?
