After reading so many posts about women and their alcoholic boyfriends, I thought I was reading about my own situation. I met this man about a year and a half ago after I had just moved into my new place. I knew he was an alcoholic but I thought I could help this man well its been nothing but a struggle. He has a good heart, honest, hardworking, faithful and most of all trustworthy around my kids. The bad thing is he is an alcoholic. Never in my life had I pictured myself with an alcoholic man. My stepdad was an alcoholic, always cheated on my mother, always abandoned her. Why would I want to deal with such an addiction? Anyway the past 18 months has taken a toll on myself not to mention my youngest son. His drinking has gotten worse, he fights for any little thing so he has an excuse to take off and disappear for days. I'm tired of looking for him at the bus stop sitting down with his can of beer. I pull up and he runs away says he is not ready to come home. His grown children reject him and only come around when he has money. He rather stay overnight at this brother's house where he can get drunk. During his hangovers he is rude and insensitive and gets on my son's case. He is not allowed to drink at the house or have any beer in the house. He says he takes off for this reason. After he is all drunk he calls me to pick him up from his brother's house and if he comes home he demands I cook for him and be there at this side. I hate this part for I can't stand the smell of that c**p. I want to break away, we break up takes all his clothes/c**p with him. A couple days later he comes back with all his c**p. The cycle just continues. I am ready burned. I have no peace. If he is home while im at work and I call home I worry if I hear his voice slur. Its a crazy life. I went to my first ALNON meeting two weeks ago and it helped only for a little while. Ihaven't been back, i need to go so I can get strong and finally break away from this situation. This drives me crazy. Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel like I am in a worse place due to his drinking. If he goes a couple days without a beer he acts like a jerk. Getting on everybody's business, being rude and moody. I know this is the dry drunk episode. Last weekend he decided to stay at his brother's house all weekend so he could get plastered. I get a call Sunday evening to pick him up still buzzing. He demandsto eat, I guess when they are on the streets hunger is not desirable. I hold on to a grudge and I finally have it out with him. Im thinking how dare he abandon me so he can get wasted. I hold on to the resenment, we fight, and he gathers all his c**p and leaves. There we go again. My question why do I get so angry i want to just hurt him.
