[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds innocuous, if it really is what he’s describing. Let the man have a beer.[/quote]

That sounds fun. I'm a woman and would LOVE a legit dive bar to stop in at. [/quote]

Maybe I’m using the dive term incorrectly. But they’re just not fancy and definitely not where white collar professionals go for a happy hour. They look like random crummy bars on Apple Maps.[/quote]

Yeah, but their cheaper.  He doesn't want to go to more upscale places that may be loud and charge more.  $5 is cheap.  He's probably adding a tip on the card for the rest.  He doesn't want to go and pay $8-10 for a quick decompression drink.[/quote]

OP, I think you have to tell us how much your husband drinks so that the discussion can either go towards dealing with an alcoholic or something else (e.g. a stressed out husband, or a serial cheater).  Does he need a light mimosa for breakfast? A quick IPA before bed?  2 fingers of whiskey with dinner?  Or is this just 1-2 beers per week?

We’re not adverse to it but we’re not big drinkers. Wine with dinner once or twice a week. When in social gatherings together we’ll drink wine or he’ll have a beer.[/quote]

My spouse and I never drink at dinner - ever - unless we’re at a restaurant.

You guys may not be “big drinkers,” but you’re drinkers alright - and his one light beer on occasion is consistent with that.

There is no problem here.  [/quote]
