No , but I would date a girl that likes to drink on occasion or likes to drink with me , Alcoholic to me is someone that drinks every day that needs alcohol to function in life I am not that way what so ever , I like to drink beers on the weekends or special occasions to relax and unwind , with friends People that don’t drink at all will call me a weekend alcoholic , which is fine everyone one makes assumptions of someone else so even though I know I don’t get that crazy with it and sometimes I do when I am having fun , that’s something I enjoy and I don’t care what other’s think or say , Cuz I honestly love the taste of craft beers mainly IPA’s , if I get buzzed or a little drunk I know my limits for the most part , Alcohol can fuck with your emotions but it can also help you relax and not give a fuck about shit that you are dealing with , Alcohol usually makes me smile and have fun when I am with the right people so that’s all that matters to me , so if she likes to drink with me and socialize and she is still loyal and honest with me her drinking won’t effect me , if she is drinking and using it as an excuse to go whore around and get into trouble then she isn’t the girl for me period

Dating someone who struggles with alcoholism or has a history of alcohol addiction can present challenges and complexities. It's important to approach such situations with care and consideration for your own well-being and that of the other person.
Before pursuing a relationship with someone who is an alcoholic or has a history of alcoholism, it is crucial to understand the potential risks and dynamics involved. Alcoholism can have a significant impact on an individual's health, behavior, and relationships. It can lead to emotional and physical dependence, affecting their ability to maintain stable and healthy connections.
If you decide to enter into a relationship with someone who is an alcoholic or in recovery, it is essential to establish open and honest communication. Supporting them through their journey and encouraging them to seek professional help or attend support groups, such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), can be beneficial. It's important to set healthy boundaries and take care of your own well-being as well.
Ultimately, whether or not to date someone with a history of alcoholism is a personal decision. It may depend on various factors, such as the individual's commitment to recovery, the extent of their progress, and your own ability to handle the challenges that may arise. It is recommended to seek guidance from professionals, such as therapists or counselors, who can provide specific advice based on your circumstances and relationship dynamics.
I dated one but couldn't tell he was one. Always so happy go lucky. Then one day he came over and was really upset and remorseful sounding.
It was then that he told me he was an alcoholic. He had a job where he could take his boys in the truck with him. Apparently that particular night scared him.
He said that he is so drunk he doesn't know if the light was red or green - he just went!
I stopped dating him because I didn't want him to get in an accident and kill or disable any of us (I had a son too). No thanks!
No way in hell would I ever even consider it. My parents were both alcoholics and it was a hard life which was scary and traumatizing. I never wanted that life for me or my children! I think it is a disgusting life style and selfish as fuck. That is why as an adult I love my parents but I do not give one fuck about their feelings, if they piss me off I flat out tell them because they never cared about my feelings growing up so why should I care about theirs?

I did. I don't recommend it under any circumstances!
No. Enough is enough, I am not mother Theresa. Nor am I able to save people who do not wish to be saved. No. I have to put my sanity first.
Hell no unless he’s willing to save himself.
I'm an alcoholic who completely stopped drinking for about 40 years.
I've been retired from working for quite a few years.
A few years back, I took up drinking a little bit of whiskey to pair with my cigars.
I became physically ill two years ago, with the pain becoming unbearable in the early months of this year. The medical community has done nothing to help me.
I've increased my drinking to help the pain. It works.
If drinking becomes problematic for me, I'll stop.
I'd date me.
My wife of 30 years did.
We met when I'd been already been sober for some years.
She's fine with my drinking now.
I'm married to a alcoholic and it sucks so bad since it creates a lot of stress and problems.
If I would have known before marrying him then I most likely wouldn't have stayed but stuck here now so I just try to my best to support him in anyway that he needs.
I am mature and sensitive enough to understand others feelings. I would give her a chance only if she promises me that she'll drink only on the weekends or on the occasions. If her drinking habit becomes worse then I have to dump and leave her. Drinking, smoking, taking drugs, all types of addictions are a BIG financial burden on the person and on the family. Addictions can have serious health complications on women's pregnancy and child birth.
Never. My parents have never tasted even a single drop of alcohol and I’m sure they will not be happy if I drink either. I would not date anyone who makes poor life choices and gives into addictions. I think this is something that they should disclose early on in the relationship.
That's a No! Never again I would say. Had a terrible experience before few years dating a girl. Didn't know she had a drinking problem till it escalated in a horrible nightmare.
I'd say if they don't do something about it and asmit they have a problem even when you confront them about it. I'd say run away. This addiction ain't a joke sure it's fun the first few times but after the fifth time ain't a joke anymore.If they showed the discipline and earnest to recover and leave alcohol behind them, yes. But it's probably unlikely in most circumstances. I grew up with an alcoholic mother and to this day deal with it. I have no patience or sympathy for people who allow themselves to stay in that kind of darkness when I pulled myself out or away from it.
I would not, I don't like most peoples behavior when they drink, people that take drugs that includes smoking. Women seem worst in private when intoxicated as the men I've seen were more fun. The drug is masking some emotional crap and that comes out on the person closest to them.
It's not worth it... stay single and get a dog, or get help to get past the drug.
I would date an alcoholic that is currently getting help. I would not date someone I knowingly observe is an alcoholic who does not try to get help. Any vice that is an addiction to cope with something in their life on a regular basis is not going to be good in any relationship.
Nope. Been there done that. It won't happen again.
I'm not against someone drinking. But if I see her take a single drink, I will watch to make sure she has it under control. I will also watch to see how she acts when drinking.
Being an alcoholic, or any kind of heavy drinker, is an absolute deal breaker.
Not knowingly, no, unless they had beat it.
The best girlfriend I ever had, though, was a recovering alcoholic. I didn't know it when we first got together. And I know why she became an alcoholic. But she had pulled herself together and was an absolutely wonderful person. I loved her with all my heart.I would definitely consider dating an alcoholic with nice boobs, as long as I knew their drinking habits were manageable. Sure, alcohol use can be destructive and dangerous, but it doesn't have to be like that. I believe that every beautiful melon, honker, boobie, tit, milker, chesticle, bazoomba, coconut, fiery biscuit, cantaloupe, boom boom, and noogie deserves to be loved. So what are you waiting for? Let's battle alcoholism and slay your milk monsters!
Nah... I've dated women who you might be able to say came close to being alcoholics, and that was not a good situation. I felt that way, even when I was a drinker.
I actually totally quit drinking about a month ago though, so now it's totally out of the question for me.
I honestly feel like I wouldn’t know an alcoholic until I’m actually like with them. Only signs that I wouldn’t know is if we’re out on the first dates and it’s all they wanna do or they introduced themselves like that.
And honestly, everybody deserves a chance I feel like if they’re trying to keep their sobriety then I should respect that and I said also let them know what I’m working on. It takes true vulnerability to let someone know what’s going on.Truth is I did. I didn’t even break up because of it. Long story. She’s a great woman. She really is. Her job… A lot weighed on her. She was super depressed and tormented mentally. I felt horrible for her. She didn’t deserve it. She’s so caring and sincerely compassionate.
She was super funny though and always had great stories. But seeing her cry brome my heart
I can't stand the smell nor taste nor side effects of alcohol. I prefer not to be around it. I can tolerate a light social drinker if he does not drink daily/weekly/monthly but only a few times a year. But ideally, he wouldn't drink at all
If you seen me you'd at least totally have sex with an alcoholic.
https://www.youtube.com/embed/kETwhcSymeAI can't even keep all the fat chicks off of me.
Hard to say. The last 3 women I took a liking to ended up in AA. (I'm not saying I drove them to it.) We weren't even dating. But either they were going for problems they didn't really have. Or I can't identify a functional alcoholic. Only one of them even drank frequently. So apparently in my heart I would even though my head says "no I wouldn't". I guess it's fortunate it never worked out with any of them.
