Crosspost "I (40F) recently found out that my boyfriend (30M) is a light weight and I don’t know how to handle this" from /r/relationship_advice:

So, we have been in a relationship for about 2 years. We don’t normally drink or do drugs because we are happy enough in our lives without having to reach for drugs or alcohol as a cope.

Anyway, we decided that we would get wasted together for the fun of it. We went to the weed store and bought a couple grams of bud and went to the liquor store and bought a bottle of wine and planned for a nice evening at home getting fucked up.

We set up the bong and my boyfriend literally took one bong rip and passed out. He just fell asleep almost instantaneously. I was like what the fuck? I was left alone to drink the entire bottle of wine and finish smoking all the bud.

He stayed asleep until the next day and woke up embarrassed apologizing for being such a light weight.

Anyway, I am struggling with being able to look at him as a real man now. All my previous boyfriends have been able to out drink and out smoke me.

I’m looking for advice on how to move past this because I love him very much and I don’t want to break up.

Thank you!
