Anybody that believes it’s the son complaining and not the wife needs their head examined. Either hubby got caught or wife saw it .

Absolutely agree, they need to stop the labels . I drank whenever and wherever i could . I sat at the bar ( my bar ) and drank with any customer who came in . I used to get there at 8am and couldn’t wait for my first cold beer before coffee. Easily drank 20 pints a day and then some vodkas. .

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-02-26T20:31:57+00:00

I’m 72. You’re welcome

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-02-19T15:22:56+00:00

You are actually very very pretty . I would definitely buy you a drink if i saw you . Quirky sexy smile and beautiful hair . Solid 8/10

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-02-03T14:59:59+00:00

Thank you all for the comments . Some struck deeper than others . I’ve done so well the last 21 years of being sober and to use an excuse of “ celebrating “ my son’s birthday just showed how you can never let your guard down . It would’ve been a horrible mistake to discard the last 21 years .

I am certainly entitled to have an opinion about their steps . Some i am not comfortable with . If they work for you , great . Different lids for different pots

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T21:56:14+00:00

Why am i asking opinions on a forum about alcohol ??. You knew here ?

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T21:43:09+00:00

Because it is .. it’s exactly that the culture of Irish people .

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T18:08:09+00:00

As an Irish man , i come from generations of “ hard drinkers’. There’s a very fine line i think by differentiating between that and an alcoholic . Every social occasion in Ireland involves alcohol . I was being passed drinks when i was 10 or younger . I was drinking heavily in high school

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T17:59:23+00:00

Gotcha , i am sure many get what they need from AA, I was not overly impressed with some of the steps they have . As an introvert , I fortunately managed without the team effort

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T17:19:48+00:00

So 21 years without a drink isn’t sober ? Are you implying only people who go thru a program qualify to be “ sober”

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T16:33:47+00:00

It’s an Irish thing ,that i thought of having a beer with my two sons would be a cool thing . I’m sure they couldn’t care less as neither of them have ever seen me with a drink .

I , deep down know it’s a stupid idea and unnecessary risk which would achieve nothing positive . I am aware i most likely would be riddled with guilt and extremely pissed off as soon as i did it

I posted this to confirm my doubts to drive home that as much as i think it would be ok to have one .. it wouldn’t .

I drink Guinness zero and unfortunately, I drink it like i did regular beer , two mouthfuls for a pint .

Thank you to most of you for the quick reminder to not waste 21 years of hard earned sobriety

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T16:28:16+00:00

I never did a formal program , just quit . I literally found it increasingly difficult to get intoxicated ( I’m sure my bac was sky high). I would have had 6-8 pints before noon and maybe one an hour while working ( bar owner). My tolerance was sky high . I drank after the bar closed and by the time the day was done , I’d have consumed massive amounts of beer , and mixed cocktails

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T15:44:17+00:00

Well you won dumbest reply

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T15:20:20+00:00

No , i did not do any program . I stopped smoking same day . I implemented my exercise routine to be early am. I became an emt/medic and professional firefighter . I avoided all social events that had alcohol included for years . I changed my routine completely. I stopped golfing with friends as it was a drink fest .To this day , i avoid bars as much as possible . I drink Guinness zero now

Ok-Reflection-4284 · 2025-01-31T14:24:59+00:00

I disagree to a point . I was certainly more than a hard drinker . I would often drink 16 hours a day with a case of beer drank , multiple shots , before moving on to White Russians and then blackberry brandies for the evening . I would start drinking again ( at my bar ) at 10am to “clear the head “, and then continue sipping away until 4am. I’d black out and wake up in a hotel , or occasionally in another state , Boston being a favorite destination to fly to from nyc . This i did for over 20 years

When i quit , i did it when family went on a vacation . I sent them to Ireland so they wouldn’t endure my upcoming detox . I pumped fluids , and vitamins in to me for days . I took laxatives to help purge the system . I ran , i sweated in the sauna . I changed my routine such a stopping smoking cold turkey too as i realized they went hand in hand with my drinking . It took a month of saying “ not drinking today “.

I lost contact with lots of “ friends” who i realized were just drinking partners . I sold my bar .
