Partner drinks and smokes too much and its affecting his health

Q.   My partner who is 42, drinks every night 4 -6 six cans or more. Rarely less. We have been together 2 years and he claims that he has reduced his intake. Perhaps he has, as before we got together he was single for many years and lived an alcohol ...

A.   26 April 2011: I think -unless he decides he wants to change- then you need to accept him and his behaviour for how it is, because he isn't going to change. If you keep bringing it up (even though you're doing it for his own good) it is going to cause a wedge ... (read in full...)

A.   25 April 2011: You gotta build your own self confidence and belief in yourself. That will stop you being insecure and needy. At the moment you don't think yourself good enough for this great girl to be your girlfriend. If you continue with the needyness, she will ... (read in full...)

A.   25 April 2011: Wow that's a big thing you forgave your boyfriend for. (Finding them with only her underwear on) I think your boyfriends friends attitude is largely caused by what youf boyfriend has told them. If he had told them the story as you have told it, hi... (read in full...)

A.   21 April 2011: Look at it this way. If you had showed him this evidence, and he was remorseful, and sat down and told you what was lacking in your relationship, maybe you would have something to work on. You could have perhaps figured something out. But as he has ... (read in full...)

A.   21 April 2011:  Reading your follow up post I would say you just have to stick in there, and support and encourage him. If he used to go to work out and it is only due to a death that he has gained weight then you know that he does want himself to look goo... (read in full...)

A.   20 April 2011:  I am in my 30's and I have found dating a woman around my own age (or a few years older) the best. This is mainly because I have found them to be better at dealing with their emotions, are more mature and know what they want out of life. If y... (read in full...)

A.   19 April 2011: Put your insecurities aside and do it. Your boyfriend loves every bit of your body or he wouldn't want you to do this. By not doing it you are just making him feel like there must be something wrong with the way he sees you. Do it.. you'll find it ... (read in full...)

A.   15 April 2011: Personally I don't like them, I don't think they are attractive. I think one or two in each ear is fine, but that's about it. I guess I tend to think "natural beauty" is attractive and you don't need to pierce/tattoo or put loads of makeup all over ... (read in full...)

A.   10 April 2011: What a situation you have got yourself in to. Well I would say, openly asking the girl to get an abortion isn't going to work. If I were you, i would try and show this girl that it is not in your best interests to have the baby in terms of having a ... (read in full...)
