My (20F) boyfriend (20M) May have a drinking/blackout problem and I dont know how to handle it.

This is NOT a 2 sided relationship. Just because he seems nice doesn't mean he is being considerate of you. You are only 20, and I want to tell you, I dated a drug addict for years and this stuff sounds too familiar, especially the blackout excuses. He may feel bad, but he's not sorry, which is hard to come to terms with. Otherwise he would have came home with you when you were drunk, or not gotten to that point where je was missing and made you terrified for him or what he might do. Even if he gets better with his drinking eventually, he is not the one for you right now. You're in college, don't commit to someone who can't be what you want and need. Then again, I wouldn't have really understood all this when I was your age. Sometimes just going on a date with someone else shows you that there are plenty of fish in the sea.
