My boyfriend and I work together for a very small company. At least twice a week he drink’s without asking me expecting me to do his job and my job to which I do because I can’t say no. I feel alone in everything. Am I being used by him?

I would say based on what you posted yes.... anyone who regularly expects you to pick up his slack because he ia abusing alcohol... he has put you in the spot of the enabler.

Does he have to ask your permission to consume alcohol? If you think you are being used then you need to vocalise this. Obviously your idea of a relationship is different from his. However.......if you don't ever vocalise this he will assume you are OK with the current setup. You'll grow to silently resent him. And it will almost certainly result in breakup.
