No one can tell what the future holds. So whether his sobriety is temporary or he finds a way to remain in recovery, no one knows.

What you do know is that you and he really don't want the same things. So this suddenly becomes less about his sobriety, and primarily about you no longer being compatible because you don't want the same things.
