[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, check yourself 
Your OP said he drank so much at the work event he sent you an email telling you he would never drink again.
That lasted a week.
Then you said he is begging you to go to the store to get beer, and then pouting in the basement because you said no.
You are doing the classic enabling here with each post trying to defend and minimize his behavior.
Get yourself to Alcoholics Anonymous and see how this is classic alcoholism and what your role in this is.

I know how bad the behavior is, believe me. I'm not trying to minimize it. In order to get honest opinions, I do need to share all relevant info, which includes the fact that he does seem to have some self-control and currently limits his drinking to 1-2 times a week. That's not minimization, it's just me trying to be candid so that you can give my real opinions about how bad this is. Talking to you all about this has made me realize that the important thing is not how much or how little he's drinking, it's that it seems like he can't stop after he gets started. I do think it's a good idea for me to go to Al-Anon myself and I will definitely take that advice. [/quote]
