Hi Lying Heart,

I would be concerned if my partner drinks every day. This is not something I would put up with either. I used to have a husband that drank one or two beers a day and then it escalated to the point that he had 12 beers a day. However, he came from alcoholic parents. You haven't said anything about your partner's family background. If drinking is a problem with his family or communication is bad all the time, you may want to reconsider that relationship. If you feel like the relationship is worth saving, you may want to join a support group such as Adult Children of Alcoholics or Al-Anon. I am not saying he has a drinking problem, though. Having the support of people who have had bad experiences with drinkers in their lives may help you sort out your feelings about the relationship.
