I don't see why he got mad? I'm lost? My girlfriend works hard and doesn't get to go out often.. whether I'm with her or not I always encourage her to drink some whiskey for me and that she deserves it. I don't see why he should get mad at you, unless you were making him quit drinking then went out and got wasted it could be hypocritical.
Coming home drunk, reeking of alcohol, and spending the day hungover is all the same as drinking around him.
We don't know that is the case because he might have been in bed when she did make it home. And like i said what is she supposed to cut it out compltely just because he wants to stop? he sure doesn't seem to have the same consideration for her when she might make him miss a part of his fotball game.

If you want a backstory, go through and read her other threads. You will see a trend.
A supportive partner would do whatever it takes to help. If that means putting down the bottle completely, then you do it. If that's too difficult for you (whomever) - then that's a sign you have a problem as well.

I can tell you this, I would never ever let my wife/girlfriend get off the bus alone, no matter what the reason is.........
Partying is one thing but your safety should always be the first thing he thinks of.....
My boyfriend is currently on a diet and off the alcohol. On Saturday night we went out to a football game where if our team lost, we were out of the competition. We won in an amazing last minute victory and all the fans were so excited. I had asked my bf earlier if he minded if I went out for a drink after the game, depending on the result. As the result was so incredible, and as I knew he was going to be on the team's website talking about the game for the rest of the night and I wasn't going to get much attention, I couldn't wait to go out and party.
I asked him again and again if he was sure he didn't want me to come home with him and he said no, go out and celebrate. The next day I was quite hungover and he was furious at me. He went off his brain telling me he had to catch the bus home all alone and that I was selfish for leaving him. I was so confused! This was coming from a man who once left me alone in the middle of the night because I had to get off the bus and use the bathroom and he didn't want to miss the beginning of yet another game we were going to so he let me get off the bus alone and wait alone at the freezing bus stop for another bus because he couldn't miss 10 measly minutes of a football game.
For the rest of the day he treated me like garbage, speaking to me terribly (he went out, and when he came back I asked him where he had been, he told me it was none of my f'ing business). I would never EVER speak to him the way he spoke to me yesterday, no matter what he'd done.
Now today I don't know whether to be mad at him or feel bad. I understand his frustration at our Sunday together being wasted because I was hungover, but I don't think he needed to speak to me the way he did. He was telling me I should show him more support on his diet/alcohol ban while encouraging me to go out and celebrate at the same time.
People ask me why I am drinking when he’s stopped, and I tell them it’s because I'm a grown woman who can make my own decisions. He quit smoking and I didn't. I dieted and he didn't. We are a couple but we are also individuals. He would never ask me to stop anything for him and I would never ask him to stop anything for me.
What do you make of it?
P.S. I know y’all are over my whingeing, but this is the only place I want to come to when I need advice. I can’t believe how moronic people are on other advice websites.
People who love each other don't treat each other this way.
I think you and he are both starting to realize the relationship has run its course.
Of course seeing that can be very frustrating I'm sure. After all, you've invested years in something that is not working out.
Be honest with yourselves and each other - end it with some dignity.
I went to a restaurant called BJ's when I was on vacation with Miss Antlers.
One of the items on the menu was called mango tango
I love mango juice. I buy it all the time.
