Hello, I joined this forum after finding the website through a websearch. I decided to join it because I don't have much outside personal support with the situation I'm in, and Im just so frustrated and practically desperate and sometimes I dont know what to do.
Here's my story:
I was single for a few years (except the messy on again off again- trying to cut all ties with an exbf) and when I finally got free I was happy, and looking forward to finding someone better suited for myself. ( and me for them)
I met * Scotty* last August at a local library and we became inseparable. In fact I had just moved 3 blocks from the library and would walk there and kept seeing a guy there that was cute, and we hit it off, he moved in with me and we've been together ever since. It's almost one year
We found out I was pregnant in Feb, and he had asked me to marry him in January, but a little bit before then, between Thanksgiving and Christmas time, he started to drink real heavy. We had drank a couple of times together but Ive never had problems with not being able to stop drinking, or control my drinking or want for being drunk
( I have been set free from other substance abuse though, and maintained self-control and victory over those areas of myself.
Anyways, *Scotty* and myself have been together nearly a year and he now has this huge drinking problem that I was unaware of until it reared it's ugly head. Now it won't go away. He drinks to drunkeness everyday, runs his mouth to m, turns into a real jerk. I had to call the police a couple times two months ago and when I was about to leave with my brother and all my stuff he started crying ( something I'd never seen from him before) and said I would stay if he promised not to drink. That was two or three days before Memorial Day and that was his excuse to get drunk. He hasn't quit.
Today was supposed to be another "new day" for him that he designated himself without me asking or saying anything, but as soon as i went to the store to get groceries I came back and he was already buzzing pretty hard, got drunk, talked some real stupid hurtful stuff to me and I've just had it to here.
I do t know what to do. I'm almost 7 months preg., finacially dependent on him at this point, and so very very disappointed.
Just looking for advice and understanding and hope, I guess
I know people can be totally set free through Truth, if they want to be.
