My boyfriend left me because I like to drink. Is he being controlling or do I have a problem?

I’ll try to keep this short. We’ve been together for 7 months. We lived together. There were a few signs that I was in a controlling relationship in the beginning. He asked and begged me to stop smoking cigarettes. So I did. He vaped so I picked up that habit, but then he wanted to stop. So he begged and pleaded again for me to stop vaping. Which I have for him. I still like vaping but I stopped for him. He has also accused me of flirting/cheating for small stupid reasons which is something I would never do.

In the beginning, we enjoyed indulging in having a few drinks together. But sure enough there’s been 2 instances where we got carried away and it turned into really bad, drunken fights. So we made an agreement that we both wanted to stop drinking. It was much easier for him to stop, than I. I work in a career where I’m surrounded with people drinking around me daily. So last week he came to visit me at work and smelled whiskey on my breath and got very upset and left. He moved out 2 days later saying that I’m never going to change and now he can’t trust me because I can’t say no to alcohol or go a week without it and I need to prove to him that I care more about him than alcohol. But yet, he doesn’t think he has a problem with it like I do. So he shouldn’t have to stop. Funny enough, the last time I saw him he was drunk from playing golf with his buddies.

I’m all for having more control over my drinking and not drinking as much, but I don’t think I want to stop cold turkey. He saying now that we can get back together if I stop completely, but I just don’t find that very realistic for me and my lifestyle. I still enjoy having a few drinks when I get off a long days work. So I’m basically in a place where I’m having to choose between alcohol and him which I don’t think is right. Shouldn’t he see the progress I’ve made and not throw the towel in so easy if he really truly loved me? Or do I actually have a problem with saying no to alcohol?

I miss him and love him to no end. I want him back, but I just don’t know if I should be with someone who’s so strict with me and so unforgiving of me giving in to my urges to drink.

Any opinions/advice would be so greatly appreciated.
