[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your husband just lost both of his parents which brings up all sorts of emotions including unpleasant ones from his childhood related to their alcoholism.

And you are confused about this?

I hate to say it but given your husband's background odds are very high you have more of a problem with alcohol than you realize.[/quote]

Why would someone have an issue with alcohol, given a spouse's background and parents? [/quote]

NP here.  I agree with the first PP and I don't think I can make you understand, but yes, OP's husband's background (losing both parents to alcoholism!) and a horrible childhood related to alcoholic parents does not "mean" that his spouse has an issue with alcohol.  It means the spouse is especially attuned to people with alcohol issues, and that his wife probably doesn't recognize that she has an issue, but her husband is noticing it.  [/quote]

OR it means that he is traumatized and now thinks everyone is an alcoholic. He’s even uncomfortable with a friend of many years bringing over beer. You and first PP are really making things up.[/quote]
