And herein lies the truth about priorities and dating. People will select the person that has the most value to them, whatever value that may be, instead of choosing a s/o that would be a good life partner.
In this example, the OP chooses a man who is a wasted, 'sickened' (way to enable BTW), alcoholic. The OP considers previously married and single fathers as undateable. She claims to be some sort of model. Either the OP choose a path of life that was extremely full of mistakes, or she is lying about much of her life story.
Either way, this is an extreme fail. I see 30-something women online dating all the time. There are many many attractive women over 30 there. They have many opportunities to them for dating, and yet this OP, this 'model', must resort to an alcoholic that can not legally drive ?
Sometimes I wonder if the OP literally has nothin better to do. I am very curious is anyone can actually verify the validity of any of IDDY stories, or claims upon herself. And why her threads reach the level of comments is beyond me.
Ironic: IDDY absolutely shredded someone on this forum a while back because the woman got married after only dating a guy for a very short time. Turns out that poster married the wrong guy, and IDDY had no reservation, no compassion, and made it a point to say "I told you so". I don't believe in karma, but sometimes life has a way of being ironic.
The poster you mention that I attacked was in fact someone who several think was trolling and did have several ids, so no I didn't randomly attack that poster. Yes I was a model in my 20's and yes I consider single dads undateable TO ME but that's not the issue here. Yes there are many attractive women doing online dating but there aren't a lot of good guys doing online dating that are open to dating them. When I did online dating my choices were date dads, date older or date men with different morals. No thanks I will pass on online dating. I have my choices offline.
I did not read all posts but IMO if you are wondering if you should date someone that implies its a new relationship. New relationships should be hassle free. Someone should at least appear to be stable & burden free at the beginning then later you might start to see some annoying traits. If there are BIG red flags so early, move on to the next. In the meantime buy some fresh batteries & pleasure yourself.

I've known him a year but didn't start dating then. I would keep my options open but I do love him.

This is terrific advice! I believe this wholeheartedly. People are usually on their best behaviour in the beginning of a relationship, everything should be going well. To have such problems so early on is a gigantic, waving red flag.
I had a GF who had been dating a guy for 8 months and they were in couples therapy. It was very unstable, and when she asked my opinion, I gently told her that not even dating a year and already in therapy, I didn't believe it bode very well for a relationship to have so many issues so soon. It took her a few more months but she finally broke up with him when she acknowledged that therapy shouldn't be required to be with someone so early on in dating.
If this is the best it's going to be, I'd run like h*ll.
There is so much wrong with those two sentences, I don't know where to start, so I'm just going to post a few links and hope that people pay more attention to them than to your post.

You can easily love someone else.
BTW, he doesn't love you. There is no room for you in his life.
Also, you have no duty or obligation to this person. It isn't your responsibility to reform them.
It is your responsibility to do what is best for you and your family. In this case it would be to simply move on and find someone who can treat you the way you need to be treated.
Your eyes are open, just don't blind yourself with idiocy and false obligations.
I can love someone else but my mind is so wrapped up in him right now and it makes it hard to move on. Besides, even if I did move on it's not like I have many choices out there. Would I move on if I did? perhaps, I don't know.

And here we go, right 'round back to the beginning.
