I'm in love with an alcoholic

...See more How can you try to convince someone who is an alcoholic to get help when they don't see the error in their ways. My current bf who will be 41 next month has drank excessively for over 20 years. He was my 1st love over 20 years ago and we reconnected after my separation about 2 years ago. We've been together 1 1/2 years and living together about 6 months. Since we've been together he drinks less but still A LOT. When he's sober he's good and loving and loves me and makes plans for our future. When he's drunk he's hurtful and hateful and doesn't love me or want me. He has the potential to be an amazing person I see it in him but he doesn't see his drinking as a problem. His mother ask him to stop....my mother has talked to him. Nothing ever gets through to him. I love him more than anything and quite honestly don't think I ever stopped 20 years ago but I just don't know how much longer I can do this. I know everyone he's ever been with has given up on him because of this and I don't want to be another to do that but it's killing me when he's hurtful. Please how can I make him see??
