[QUOTE="Origami, post: 668370, member: 18099"] Thanks for all your replies and support. To update, the boyfriend ended up in the county jail with a restraining order and being banned from the college campus. My daughter bailed him out, not knowing about any of this. She didn't call me at all for a few days afterward (unusual for her). She said that he told her it was all a misunderstanding, that she was running and stumbled and he grabbed her to break her fall, and other people (who had all been drinking) thought he had pushed her down. She said she believes him since he's always been honest with her. He got fired from his job, also, over the matter. So I guess they're still talking on the phone although not seeing each other because of the restraining order. In the absence of any reliable witnesses, I don't know if he's telling her the truth or not. She said they both decided not to drink at all for a while, and she's working with her therapist to get control of her drinking. Her therapist told her this incident should be a wake-up call for her. My daughter said she realizes that she doesn't know when to stop, and needs to work on moderation, but it's abstinence for now. She also said that she and the boyfriend rely too much on drinking in their relationship. I think she's really shaken up by all this. He has a court appearance a week from now, and she's supposed to be there. I'm glad she seems to be admitting she has a problem, and just hope she can find the strength to overcome it. So far she's still doing well in her classes and her job, so I won't pronounce her a total Difficult Child just yet. [/QUOTE]
