How alcoholics constantly blame others when things don't go THEIR WAY. Often they will insist the problem in the relationship is the other person and it's the other person who has to change. This tends to happen in other relationships as well, including working with others and blaming problems on others. I talked to someone about two weeks ago that was in a bad mood, thought they were mad at me or something. Turns out it was because their boss is an alcoholic and can be very hard to deal with for just this reason. I remember when my husband drank he was like that and my father as well. That type of behavior can trigger me. I also think that has contributed to how my sister behaves, not sure if she still drinks or is what is called a dry drunk.
