You can't have your cake and eat it too. Getting drunk is a choice...not an addiction...few are addicted to alcohol. The only person I saw who was truly physically addicted was my father in laws the x cop...He drank up to 60 oz of vodka per day- THAT is addicted. Eventually his liver failed and his abdomen filled with fluid as if he were 10 months pregnant..the pressure brought on a heart attack and he died. Being a macho old school cop he thought he would leave this world with a gun in one hand and a bottle in the other...that it would be a grand exit....it was worse than watching a cancer patient die. By the time he figured out that this poison would kill him- It was too late.

If you're not a troll then me say this--you're a selfish person and apparently there's something mentally wrong with you if you'd want a 50 year old alcoholic virgin who lives with his mother rather than being part of a child's life. Whatever you do, don't have kids because you'd screw them mentally anyway.

(drops the mic..I'm outta here)
Yes I am selfish because I would rather keep my money then help support someone else's kids. It's not my responsibility to help support someone else's kids with MY money, it's their responsibility. So what if I want a church wedding and nice dates? that's what happens when people date.

Again, no details of when his addiction became prominent to you? Nothing about how his mother is dealing with this? No details about how exactly he reacts/acts towards you when he's drunk...hmmmm
When he drinks he says weird things. His mom is the one who told me he needs help.

Does he think he needs help? Or is he agreeing to treatment to appease his mom?

No, this is not an option for an alcoholic. Sorry. You'd need to find another means to a child.

No he knows he needs treatment. He hates drinking.
