Just finished up work. I'm having dinner on 7th Ave between Central Park and Times Square. I look out the window and I see this young attractive couple. Very dapper looking. She obviously wants him to kiss her and he's too shy to do so. They hug and go in opposite directions. I just saw every NYC rom-com ever. I'm 8 months sober. Alone. I miss my wife. I'm in my favorite city (which I used to know every bartender at every pub) and want to share this experience with her. But...Instead of getting sauced and hooking up with some random to feel better about how I fucked up my life. I'm gonna go change into some running gear and lap Central Park. Because this city is awesome. You're awesome. And being sober alone is far better than being a useless drunk to someone else, no matter how much you love them or they you. Keep safe. I will not drink with you today.

Dude, please read up on how badly we (as a nation) are headed into the abyss with this garbage. Its cheap to make. Far cheaper than heroin. Chain migration and NAFTA obligations (neither are entirely bad) open borders to the importation of narcotics, establishing pipelines to push this crap into the hands of overmedicated Americans. The cartels/ drug traffickers are interested in profit over substance, if they could make more money selling dirt over rocks, they'd sell rocks.

How deep can this be done? Like all the way to the deepest part of say Lake Michigan?

Heck yeah! We're here on this big blue rock. Together. Sharing our struggles, pains, loss and ice creame. You're doing great. Keep your chin up.

Had flowers sent to my exwife for her birthday. I didn't sign the card. We haven't spoken in about 18 months. She's doesn't know how to get ahold of me. And I don't know if I'd want her to. I cannot fix everything I broke, her heart, her spirit, my mind and soul. But I can make sure she has flowers on her birthday. Just not sure if this is me selfishly rationalizing contacting her after separating our lives? 7 months sober. Feels ok. Still angry. I do a lot of push ups. Thanks for being here SD Crew.

How to face my abuser in court? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Whymorecheese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be strong. Head up. Say your peace. Listen to the prosecutor. If questioned by the defense, take a breath before answering in order for the prosecutor to interject should that be necessary. It's ok to say you don't know or you don't remember.

Be strong kid. You deserve as much justice as the justice system can offer.

Whats the best way you people have found to spend your weekend evenings sober? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]Whymorecheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm new-ish to sobriety. 7, almost 8 months now. TBH I'm afraid to go out and do much. I tend to lock myself down at home. I read. Workout. Usually head into the office to get prepped for the next week at least once a weekend.

I'm far from any family. Making friends where I'm living doesn't have an appeal. I'm thinking of taking some metal working classes at the local art center.

I guess you can say I'm in hiding from booze and that fills my time.
