Hi,

We are 27 and been dating a year. The only big fights we ever have are when my bf is drinking. About every weekend he’ll go and can’t control how much he drinks. I’ve talked to him about it several times and he understands he has a problem and says he’ll change. Then, when he goes out without me he’s out till 4am because he doesn’t know how to call it quits. I’m up worrying sick about him.

I can’t live like this anymore, but I don’t want to be too controlling.

Is there anyway to compromise? I just don’t think it’s acceptable to be out that late very often when you are in a relationship and it’s also not my lifestyle.

Help!

Unfortunately, your lifestyles are incompatible…
Why would you want to compromise on something like this?

Is there a family member of his that you are on good enough terms with and you could share your worries with?

Well i dont see anything you can do. He likes to blow off steam and party and you dont. Im not even sure he has a problem. Lots of people unwind like that. Yeah sure its bad for the body long term. But most people grow out of it at some point. So if you cant live like this anymore and you dont want to be controlling you have one option left: break up. I dont see any other way
