I am dieing inside for different reasons, but I still read and had to reply to something in your post.
Quote: scary-clingy mom... his mom is 86 and owns a bar. At dinner (at a restaurant) on Sunday, she offered him a glass of wine. He's been dry for five months and she offers him a glass of wine. (He turned her down.)
This is not related to your SSM really, but I know from my side of the fence I see a lot of things that are not important to the situation that seem to be huge issues. His mom is 86 and owns a bar, I don't think she was trying to get him to drink, but rather acting on instinct. He said no and that was very good. You will not be able to stop him from drinking if her wants to drink and someone offering him a drink will not make him drink if her wants to stay sober.
