So is it fair to say that I'm an alcoholic due to those criteria? I think most people would agree that I'm not,
Depends on who 'most people' is I guess. In my book, I'd rather describe your situation (sounds like almost daily drinking to me, i.e. a proper addiction, and trust me I know those) as alcoholism then my current situation (once or twice a year I'll totally overdo it, but for the rest it averages out to like 1 drink a month).
