Spouse of an alcoholic

Hi..I am new at this so please be patient with me. I am looking for somewhere to vent and to look for support. I was married to an alcoholic for 21 years and divorced him and married another. My first husband was physically abusive and mentally abusive. My current husband just drinks too much. We have been married for three years and I can't believe sometimes that I am in this situation again. What did I do....I'm looking for advice and mostly just to connect with people who are going through the same thing. Thank you for listening to my rant.
