Dating an Adult Child of an Alcoholic


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Some background... my gf is 38. She's the adult child of an alcoholic. Her father's drinking had a profound effect on her. Her brother is also an alcoholic.

 

My gf is not an alcoholic but she has suffered through two bouts of anorexia. Once in her teens, and the second in her early twenties.

 

We've been together 20 months and there's recently been a change in her behaviour that concerns me.

 

Are there any warning sings when you're dating such a person? Do they often have trouble forming lasting relationships (beyond the limerence phase)?
