If i may, Carol, say that you buy the alcohol because you love him and you want him to be happy. At the same time, you hate doing it because, a. its your money and b. you know the outcome of too many drinks. And maybe there are other reasons but i say this because i know how this feels. I have a boyfriend who i have enabled and he has enabled me as well. Its ironic how we do things for the ones we love, yet we hurt them at the same time.

Perhaps you could visit the site for loved ones of alcoholics, someone here should know where you can find it, or a meeting and see if that it is helpful. YOu will also find many great people here who will listen and be helpful.
welcome and good luck
