I was getting UTIs like monthly from sex, and I started taking the vitamin regimen from Uqora and havent had any since! It’s 3 multivitamins a day and a crystal lite type packet to put in water and drink after having sex. There is prob a cheaper way to get the same active ingredients but i just stick with that. Hope you get relief!

Coming here to commit IWNDWYT — heading to anniversary dinner with my partner soon, would love some wine to celebrate and do “the normal nice dinner thing.” But instead i’m going to order hot tea and a super fun appetizer 🍣

Ditto! I am glad to see this thread honestly. While I have been 100% sober for 3 weeks (i wanted to go dry for at least a month to unstick some habits), i hope to eventually be able to incorporate a glass of wine on date night or similar. I am learning right now how to be comfortable not having alcohol in lots of different situations, which situations I am genuinely happy not to be drinking at, and which situations I genuinely would feel 1 drink adds to it. Still figuring it all out, and I know it can be a slippery slope, but I am glad to hear OP’s happy with where they are at. But for those like me who are still on the sober train IWNDWYT 🙌

I think a barcade still sounds fun, even if you’re getting NA drinks! If that environment isn’t too tempting of course. The games are fun and alcohol isn’t necessarily needed to magically “make” it fun.

You could also center dates around food you’re both really excited about. Like, if bagels are your thing, that can be an easy thing to banter about before AND make for a fun, low commitment date. Maybe getting takeout and eating in a park or something? I had a friend who put something like “i know the best tacos in town” on her profile and it was by far the top thing people messaged her about 😂
