My other half is the exact same – he put in a job application, he celebrated, and then he was invited to do another part of the job, and he celebrated. I try and say something to him, and I get told that I am nagging and I don’t know what I’m talking about.

I hope it all goes well with your visitors today and you get through it alright.

Hi Vixem,

I’m sorry you’re going through this. I’m in a similar situation, with my partner refusing to see his drinking as a problem. While he doesn’t wake up and require a drink right away, he doesn’t see any problem is staying up all night drinking.

Like you, I’m the only person earning in the house, and the benefits he does get, he ends up spending on booze. He finds anything a reason to ‘celebrate’ with a drink, or to ‘drown his sorrows’. It’s so tiring, isn’t it?
