I live alone, dont have anyone to lean on even if I wanted to. Well I got a spoiled as shit Dog. I would like to stop drinking, notice I didnt say want to. I use to work out and am still in reasonable shape so it wouldnt take much to do it again but where is the motivation? I know all about the dopamine shit by drinking. Being knowledgeable about it doesnt help at all.

Fuck, maybe it does just boil down to man up. I just wish I had a reason besides myself.

Without the God part my exwife happened that same way. I lived a mile from where I now do (we moved and I hadn't been back for almost 30 years) She was looking for a lost cat.

That's cool. Was she trad? We had some significant stumbling blocks in the beginning because 98% of Western women have been utterly obliterated by feminism, even the "based" ones. It was a hell of a battle but we are both better for it as a result. I refused to take the easy route of giving up like most boomer men did, who just let the woman drive the marriage into a ditch. We have now been involved 5 ish years.

Yeah, we were married 7 years and had a son who was 3 when it just, well it just. Thats when my real adult drinking started again. Not blaming it on that, just before I was doing drugs and drinking. When she met me I had just dropped all my friends and moved to the country to get away from the shit.

Maybe a sixpack with a pizza on the weekends was it. Hell I have quit alot of stuff easy. I was one of the stoners in highschool in the 70's ya know. Built my first harley from parts at twenty, just progressed from there. Im still way better off than I was. Its really just harder now I think because I go what the fuck does it matter. Im not affecting anyone but myself.
