Dear Amy: I have known my husband for 16 years. It was love at first sight. He is a down-to-earth kind of guy who is not trying to impress anyone. Back in middle school he was into the party scene. That lasted through his young adult life. He is an alcoholic. His first marriage ended in divorce because of his drinking.

EVER since I married my alcoholic husband, I’ve often had to eat dinner alone. At the end of each working day, he will phone and say he’s going out for dinner, followed by a drinking session. He comes back drunk and just dozes off.

What would you do?
