dating a heavy drinker

First of all , i encourage anyone to message me if they have any problems theyd like to talk about !

I was talking to this one guy i met , for 4 months now , we clicked really fast and things were going well expect for the fact that we live really far away , and that would be the biggest issue in our relationship, but we had plans for the future that gave me some hope But , overtime i realized that hes an absolutely alcoholic ( 20-40 shots of vodka a week , in 1-2 sittings ) his body is so used to it that he doesnt even feel hangover or anything . Hes been drinkin for years now and he also has anger issues ( punching walls or yelling at people ) and recently i realized that - because of my past experiences and trauma , the drinking might be a big problem in our relationship . I need peace and quet , safety - in a relationship. I tried helping him out but he doesnt want that , he was always really sweet , weird in a good way and we had things to talk about , i loved the way he looked at me on our videocalls and out of no where , yesterday he decided that he wants to push me away and get some ‘him time’ to read , train and drink . Realizing that he wants to choose vodka over me - someone who really tried to be there for him and possibly maybe love him - messed with my head so much . What do you think?

Alcoholism is a disease that affects families and friends of the alcoholic as well . Maybe even more.

I would say to get out while you can

Only alcoholics can help themselves. No one else can.

Being that you're young and the way things are these days I'm assuming you met online which is your first mistake, as for you and him clicking really fast that's your second mistake, unless you meet someone face to face you can't really tell anything about them, as I said I'm assuming this is a long distance online relationship, do yourself a favor and go out and meet someone you can actually touch and communicate with, at your age you don't need the drama.

If this is a long distance online relationship do yourself a favor and go find a real person you can be with, you're making excuses for his downfall, if you continue with him you're gonna wind up always making excuses for him.

You DO NOT want to be in a loving relationship with this man.....no way or you will regret it

I would let him go. It’s his loss and your gain. You don’t want to burden yourself with all that after dealing with your own challenges.

Men like this, like many of the men I’ve met, want to take all they can get and give nothing in return. They are selfish and self-serving. They see women for what they can gain from them more than a mutual healthy relationship.

I have wasted a lot of time going out of my way for people who would never do the same for me
