There is no reason to trust an alcoholic who's still practicing.That doesn't mean you can't love him for who he is.Alcoholism is a disease of the body and the mind.You need not participate in his maddness.You can't scare an alcoholic with words.If he is an alcoholic you can't even scare him with actions.He has to be willing to change his life.Next time that this happens stand by your guns.Alcoholics pride themselves in escaping any personal responsibility for their actions.You need to develop a "show me" attitude.Once he has proven himself to you then and only then should you consider letting him back into your life.It will be hard I know but he has to be able to assume responsibility for his own life before he can assume responsibility for somebody elses.
