I had hoped this thread wouldn't pop up this week...
Me and my lady friend split up this past Sunday. She had developed quite a drinking problem over the last month and it had gotten so bad that she was leaving the bar around 5 or 6 in the morning and driving over to my house with a ****ing "roadie" - god damn bartender giving her a crown and coke in a plastic cup. We always had a great time going out to the bar together - drinking, shooting pool, etc...
She broke down with me about two weeks ago, saying how sorry she was and she would start to practice moderation... I believed her but now she is back at it.
She's a bartender, her best friends are bartenders, and they all like to go to this bar that is down the street from where I live. The bar closes at 2 but they let a select few people stay as long as they like (usually til 5 or 6 in the morning). She is blowing all her money on $60+ bar tabs 5 or 6 nights a week...
I just couldn't deal with it any longer. It's hard to help someone who doesn't want to be helped. That and I've got my own problems.
