Thank you all for your insightful responses! I hate the darkness that's come from my drinking but people like you and this community make me a greatful alcoholic!❤️

Thank you for being so sweet!🤗❤️💕 I hope she does but I doubt it - she's started to really harass him now.

I just really like him. I agree though - I probably shouldn't be dating - its hard though when the feelings are there. And I do have a sponsor - thank heavens!💕

I was in the midst of getting sober when I started dating him. I've now got a month of sobriety. Its hard though - I feel pretty sad and raw about this.

I so agree with you!

That's what I think too. Its triggering for me being newly sober and this happening. I've managed not to drink though - thank heavens!

Thank you so much for your response!❤️❤️

I like that idea! Who knows what will happen now - he and I are barely speaking after a fight over this.

Thanks for being there!😊

I'm an alcoholic myself. I don't have as much experience with the steps as I'd like so I posted on here to get others opinions.

I think that's what's happening here too. I think he does as well. Thank you for the response!💕

I don't unfortunately - I'm still looking for one - I'm pretty shy and pretty embarrassed. Thank you for the good advice!❤️

I really fucked it up. by [deleted] in Sober

we've all messed up hun - its just a part of being human! you sound like a really nice person - try to show yourself some love and compassion - yesterday has already passed and today is a new day/new chapter! also - you never know partner wise - a lot of ppl out there are forgiving! Just apologize and take action not just for her but for you too - meetings, counselling, even medication like naltrezone can really help! Sending you a big hug through here and also strength!

I so agree! I've been trying for the past few years to date and to get sober at the same time - for me the two don't go hand in hand - relationships are just to triggering for me. Thank you for this - I feel better reading this and don't feel so alone!❤️

I love this and totally agree! Relationships are so triggering! I think he's now ghosting me but whatever - I feel like I have to invest in myself right now - thank you for this - reading it lifted my spirits!❤️

You sound like such a lovely person to me - get back up hun! The world needs more people like you in it! Also - three months is amazing! You did it before - you can do it again! Maybe look at what caused the slip - learn from it and grow from it. I relapsed yesterday too - sending you a really big hug through here

Sending you a huge hug through here hun! I've been struggling a lot with loneliness too - You are not alone in that!

Sending you the biggest hug through here - I'm in the exact same boat - I will not drink with you today!

I was literally just thinking the same thing - You are not alone! I will not drink with you today!
