It could be something unrelated to the drinking, but regardless of what it is, it's something that should be looked into.
If I did that, he would tell me I was wrong. That I'm imagining it. That there's nothing wrong with him. He would turn it into a fight, like always. Even when I show concern for anything with him, he tells me to mind my own business. I've just learned to let things go anymore. But this smell thing is directly affecting the kids and me. Just another thing to deal with.

If he drinks daily, doesn't contribute financially,
won't listen and turns everything into an argument
and smells like rotting meat and won't deal with it,
I'd say you will have a tough time continuing on for long
in the situation as it is.

You've said what you can't do, and that's your choice,
but have you done any thinking about what small steps
you might take to change your situation?
