[QUOTE="JustBeQuick, post: 1693801, member: 648947"] I don't know if my boyfriend is drinking too much, he drinks almost nightly. It isn't like he wakes and then wants a drink during the day but he seems to be drinking every night lately. . if not, every other night. He drinks (a night, roughly): 1.5 bottles of wine or 5 cans of stella or a bottle of whiskey with coke It's really worrying me. I have recently moved in with him and I don't know what to think; I gave up my friends and family (kinda) to move to the other end of the country to be with him. When he has had a drink he just doesn't seem to give a toss about anything and has this "so what/whatever" attitude. Is it "normal" for people to drink this much?? I am not a huge drinker myself, I have to be in the mood to have a drink, not just drink for the sake of drinking, like he seems to be doing. I have mentioned to him that basically, because my father was a drinker, it's kinda worrying for me and and he just doesn't seem to care. He is a little underweight and eats very little, usually just having his evening meals and then drinking late at night. I've explained that I am fearful of his health deteriorating -i'm seriously just thinking about walking away, as much as I love him! I can't let history repeat itself and it be like me watching my father drink when I was a child. Am I overeacting, is this an "ok" amount to drink and as frequently?
