As luck would have it i am sobering up on a friends couch. Left our trucks at the bar and walked to his house. Just wanted to say thankyou to everyone at the fire, i just mainly lurk but have read a great deal at this forum. I have found great pleasure of being a member of this forum! I usually dont post much as i feel i dont have a lot to offer. I have really been tested through my years ( i know i am a youngin) but i believe i am getting ready for my first divorce. Dont really know what to say but thank you during these troubling times.

When you get real down, pick up a Bible and open it anywhere and start reading.

Stop and think. You're so drunk you had to walk to a friend's house and sober up on his couch. Reckon this has any bearing on your impending divorce? Maturity (not the same thing as age) would probably help a lot. Eyeball is spot on with his advice.

I suspect Tommy may sober up and wonder WTF he was thinking on this post. Can't say that I haven't been in his shoes before, being drunk and doing goofy things.
"1st divorce?" Man there may not have to be one, let alone more.
Don't know the cause and effect sequence of marital problems and drinking either, but either way, let's let this thread fade away.
Hoping for the best, bro.

Tommy; Women come and go, some times the problem is you and sometimes it's her. The only problem you are responsible for and the only problem you can solve is you. If this drinking problem is a frequent occurance I'd suggest AA. You would be amazed at the number of people who have gone thru the same set of problems and have come out the other side knowing how to find their way with out the help of booze. Good thinking on walking home, maybe those steps will be the first steps of a journey to peace and serenity.
Good Luck
Jim

"1st divorce?" Man there may not have to be one, let alone more. I've been there but it was for another reason. All I was suggesting is that he think about things and perhaps ponder if he's acting wisely. Did the same thing myself and had to admit that I was not wise. Perhaps you're right, though. Maybe all of us should stay out of it and just let him destroy himself. Who needs advice?

If he gets a sober chance to ask for advice, that's a different story. But historically, open forums and marriage issues don't mix. Even then, eyeball gave him #1 already.

If he gets a sober chance to ask for advice, that's a different story. But historically, open forums and marriage issues don't mix. Even then, eyeball gave him #1 already. Later on I was wondering if maybe I had read you wrong. I'm relieve to know that I did and apologize for my "catty" remark on the end. I've been knee walking drunk before and after many years I have decided that drinking is not the way for me. Others have to walk by the light they have but it ain't for me. A close friend was once a teacher and later in life one of his students was shot and killed after a night of drinking. Not sure what started the argument but my friend made a statement that has stuck with me. He said, "Very few good things happen after midnight and nothing good comes from being in a beer joint." Drunks can argue the finer points of this philosophy but my personal take on it is I am in complete agreement.

I'm thinking most habitual drunks don't walk home when they have a vehicle. Do they Travis?
