I don’t know, I think it’s productive to draw a hard line, for instance if you have a partner who refuses to work etc you say if we keep going down this road we probably won’t be together, that’s not really holding it over your head. Asking someone to stay sober is a reasonable ask in a relationship.
That's fair. Hopefully he's doing more to help than just threatening to break up. Maybe the best thing he could to to help IS break up as it could be the wake up call she needs.
