Today, my ex sent me a pack of beer to screw with me. I'm still going to AA, and I thought I was almost over it. Five bottles later, I realized I'm not. We didn't break up over my drinking, either; it was because after just 2 weeks of dating, she threatened to kill herself if I didn't marry her. FML

wow, your ex is a psycho... stay strong OP. You can do it!

Well, it's a good thing that you're not in that relationship anymore. She sounds more toxic than alcoholism.

That raises all the bright red flags of an abusive relationship with her being the abuser. Get out now, OP. Seriously.

Sorry to say that but for me one need to be an idiot to became an alcoholic. I probably am a little paranoid but i even have mental blockade when i drink. At some point it just wont go down or i'm even unable to open my mouth. I never ever had hangover nor needed help to go back home after drinking. I just don't want to become an addict of any sort.

But the point is, now he IS an alcoholic, he is actually trying to fight it and she is not only messing with him, she is actively trying to destroy his life. And don`t be so arrogant. I don`t like alcohol as well, I barely drink, but in that way I am just lucky, since alcohol just never was my thing. Others can drink hughe amounts of alcohol frequently and don`t become an alcoholic, but some others do. And we all now that western society has a culture, not to say a cult around alcohol and it is very difficult to avoid it. In this society it is actually very easy to become an alcoholic.

I know that he is alcoholic and he is trying to get out of it. I can read, but i don't care. For me you need to be an idiot to don't realize that something is wrong and just go deeper in it. You pass out after drinking too much? You don't drink it. You see how acid works on people? You don't take it. You see how cigarettes destroy human body? You don't smoke it. You need to be an idiot to do it. "but society..." who gives a damn about what society want you to do. Something is bad for you? You don't do it. You want me to feel sorry for you? You came to wrong address. I'm unable to feel anything other than anger. I do express other emotions but i can't feel them. So yea... "arrogant".

I'm so sorry that happened to you, OP. Though I'm not an alcoholic, I have struggled with addiction and relapse was devastating for me. Stay strong!

Your ex is a ****, but YDI for caving in and drinking. Grow a spine, dude.

You may have lost the battle. But you haven't lost the war!

well it's a good thing that she didn't send vodka

Clearly you have zero willpower.. chick was right to leave you

Wow OP, that was a really really sh!t thing for her to do. All the best with your recovery, at least now you know she wasn't 'the one' that got away.
