Yes! I feel that pain too. It’s never worth it. I end up pushing people away.

Same. My ex partner loves to drink, does everyday but moderately I would want to drink if he was but over drink. When I wanted to get better he’d say goid you need to, but i’m not quitting. Didn’t seem to get not having it in the house at all would be easiest for me.

Sorry you had that experience. Some folks can't grasp the severity of the pull to use. If you told someone you were allergic to peanuts, they would purge every peanut based item in their home. Tell them that having alcohol in the home is just as dangerous to you, and they can't see it.
