[quote=Anonymous]I know someone who seems like your love of life well, but older. His path looks like this. He left the professional mainstream to work at a remote location alone which helps hide the situation. His alcohol intake lowers his inhibitions and has probably been the facilitator of his extra-marital affairs. Everyone in his field talks about it behind his back. He and his spouse likely don't know this, but he could never get another job due to the alcoholism. Another person I know drank too much, slipped on the stairs of her house and died alone in the snow. A third lost custody of her child due to the disease. Yet a fourth was in danger of losing his security clearance and called me in a panic. You see how other people get hurt, just to different degrees. I'd only consider marriage only if you don't plan on children. Feel free to run the risk yourself, but I wouldn't put a baby (toddler, teenager...) in the hands of an alcoholic parent.[/quote]
