Awe baby……..I have the same problem. Been married 36 yrs though, and I'm probably the reason she is a drinker. Anyway…….is there family history of alcohol abuse? Did he have a life changing experience? Are you the reason he drinks? Does he want to fight with you when drinking? Is he a nice,funny,play full kind of drunk? Do you ever drink with him? Does he hit? You didn't specify what the problem is for your trying to save your marriage……….so it's kind of hard to answer you. Tell us what you are feeling and maybe you will get a good answer……………………We are in the same boat……GOOD LUCK

He needs to get sober. You need to quit kidding yourself that things can be saved while his best friend is a bottle of booze. Look up Alcoholics Anonymous in the phone book, or, go somewhere else to get help in understanding the dynamics of his addiction, and what you need to do to help him/make him change. ***MILDRED SENT ME***

The simplest way is to tell him you love him and help him stop by finding a hobby or something that he can substitute for drinking. My father has been smoking for over 20 years and this method is working for him and he kind of forgets why he even smoked in the first place.

Alcoholism or any other addiction can destroy relationships, and the worst part of an addiction is that the person can't be helped until they decide they want to change. I suggest sitting down and talking to your spouse about what their drinking is doing to your relationship and that unless they want to change and start doing something about it you will leave and not take them back. then live with what they decide.

Seek help. If your still in love and willing to work on your marriage then that's the best option. Try remembering on what made your marriage last so long and keep that in mind for the future.
