So part of the problem is he started to drink everyday since he lost his job, he turns to a whole different person when he's drunk which makes me real upset because he says things that are really uncalled for and does things he knows will regret when he's sober. we argue all the dang time and he tells me that its because of me, that i nag at him all the time. i kinda think i do, but then i dont. i just let him know what's on my mind and what I really think. He just got his license back and today he dropped me off at school and went down the hill around 9:00 am and hasnt came back. it's already 7:40 pm. He once cheated on me with this girl down the hill who he still knows and thats where I think he is right now. So my question is should I stay with him? should I talk to him like a normal adult about it? but what if he comes home drunk? then I really wont know what to do cauz then he will just ignore me. What do I do????

You should talk to him. Let him know you are really worried about his drinking. If he can't stop by himself he should get help. It sounds like he has become an alcoholic, and he may need outside help. He may be depressed from losing his job and has turned to alcohol.
You have been together a long time and have two kids... As long as he isn't physically hurting you or your kids, you should only leave him if you have done everything you possibly can to make it work. If all your efforts fail, THEN it is time to consider leaving.
