Sorry, I haven't been checking in daily as I intended. The new update messed up some of my resolutions. Anyways, my bf broke up with me because of my binge drinking. I promised him I wouldn't go overboard, and I kept my promise for more than 3 months... But I had a relapse and he saw it and got disgusted by me. I feel bad about it. I don't know if staying sober every day would have made our relationship stronger. Or if it was just a disaster waiting to happen. I would like to believe that if he really loved me, he would accept my flaws and encourage me to get stronger/better. But at the 1st mistake, he bails...Who does that?

So sorry!
But, yes, his loss totally. I agree that he should accept and help, not just bail.
Many of us have been through heartbreak. It stings so bad. Some day you will be glad that you didn't remain with someone who didn't support you.

New beginning for you, you are the author of your own story. Create your life the way that you want it to be.

Huge hugs.

I ended with 16AF days for October. My ongoing goal is 16-20 AF days.
November 28th 2018 was when I started on this thread. My late Dad's birthday.
I have learned to drink less over the past 3 years, although it was very tough at first weaning myself off of being a daily drinker.

Diary style is how I roll and keep track.

Thursday November 25 - Drinks. Unplanned. I was stressed out, but really try to save drinks hours for happy times, not stress times. Planned drinks Saturday night with friends that I am going to the Symphony with. Pretty sure that I will get to 20AF days for this month.
Friday November 26 - AF - Tomorrow and Sunday off : - ) I had a violinist and double bass player in the restaurant today that are playing the Symphony show that I am going to tomorrow night. I didn't find out until they were paying, and then I totally fan girled out
Saturday November 27 - Drinks - One at a restaurant before the concert, and 2 afterwards. Really fabulous show, I got absolutely lost in it : - )
Sunday November 28 - AF - Hit my 20 - planning on 22AF days this month. Top loading really helped me this time around. This was the day that I joined this thread 3 years ago : - ) It has helped keep me on track. Thank you @MissMay : - )
Monday November 29 - AF
Tuesday November 30 - About to have a couple of drinks.


Rolling total: 21AF days out of 30 days.
