Were their any signs or did he hide it well? They also smell different than a person that does not drink. I am in hopes you are strong enough to let him go. Once is enough for anyone and you deserve better. Even being alone is better than walking into a fire. You have experienced this kind of pain already and know what a toll it takes mentally. You are a good person and deserve good things. Do you have children?
While I haven't fallen in love with another alcoholic, I found out last summer that one of my friends is a RA. 10 yrs (longer than I've known him). He has been such a strong support. Looking back on the advice and support he's given me through this past year's challenges, I can definitely see the AA influence. He is awesome. Still I was a bit freaked out that I'd 'picked' another alcoholic for support.
I think I can see where my HP is going with this lesson, though. I think not only is my friend here for support, but also here to help me learn a measure of understanding for XAH's alcoholism. I'm not there yet, but I'm willing to admit it's a lesson I need to learn.
I'm not saying that's why this guy has come into your life. And I don't mean to compare a friendship with a love, I know they're worlds away as far as relationships.....
