[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 49413, member: 3626"] Maybe the best would be to just leave things on a general, friendly level for now. Let him know about your day or week, ask about his. Swallow hard when he mentions his drinking and try to not comment on it. I know the first time my daughter moved out, most of our chats were about the pets. I did let her know I loved her and I was here if she needed me. I did not say she should come home nor comment on what she was doing unless she specifically asked for advice. This was incredibly hard for me. I so wanted to shake her out of her stupidity but I knew that would just end all communication. So, for now, I'd say try to keep it general. [/QUOTE]
