Up to how long would you keep a marriage if your husband is alcoholic. He drinks everyday, and spends beyond your family's financial limits?

That would depends on how much you love him. If he loves you, he will listen to you. Try to talk to him about it and discuss how he spends beyond your financial capabilities.

If he won't listen, try to leave him for a few days. After that, he will realize how much you mean to him.

It is hard to say when you have not been in such a situation, and each situation is different... Alcoholics can get help and return to normal life, if they want to. If the husband goes for that, I think the wife should be there and support him through the process. But if he wants to continue the drinking lifestyle, she can leave.

Hello. I guess talking is not good enough. Actually, this is not about me, it's about a friend of mine. She did a lot of talking already but still nothing worked. The husband would stop drinking for a while then after few days he's back with his vice.

This sounds like my dad. Honestly.. someone isn't going to change unless they want to. If things aren't getting any better, she may want to just leave. He can't put her through that, it's unfair and selfish of him

^ any stories about your father?
So, my friend decided to leave her husband and family for a while. They just keep on sending text messages with each other. The guy have stopped drinking, I just don't know until when he can do this.
