You may have a drinking problem

The future AA member.

"I am a 33-year old male; friendly, quiet and non-intrusive. I am a grad student at XXXX University but I will stay in [your town] til May to work for XXXX College.

I drink occasionally if that would be counted as drugs by you. I like to hang out with others but due to my job and thesis, sometimes I would have to say no. I hope you would not be upset by this."

Follow-up: "Generally I drink beer about 12 in the evening, no more than that. I am used to drinking in my room. I don't wish to disturb others."

  2. I'm still unclear if he meant he drinks at midnight or if he has 12 beers. I didn't write him back to clarify.
