Well Kaelyn where to start. Ok, it would seem to me that he probably drinks to escape certain things that have happened in his life. Now if that is the case, then he has some issues to deal with before he can really make a go out of anything. I am not sure if you want to help him through that if it is the case.

If you and him like each other and you want to make something of it, then tell him on the condition that he stops the drinking. (You'd be surprised what men will do to stay with a women.) If he cares enough about you at least, he will stop. Then once he does that, you should be able to build something from that. Be weary though that he could very easily slip back into his old self and you'll be right back where you started and then you'll really think that you have been used.

Being a guy myself and seeing over the years how much my own father used to drink I have seen how it can destroy people just as much as it destroys relationships.

Personally before I went on this venture with him again, I'd ask myself some very serious questions.

1. Is it worth it?
2.Will he change for good?
3.Do I really need this sort of crap at this point in my life?

If I found myself in the same situation I'd show them the door very quickly. But as I am not, I hope what I have said helps.
