Thank you

There was a post here in the last few weeks regarding folks who were drunk at meetings. I'd just like to thank you all for that thread, because I think it helped me immensely tonight.

I woman came in to the meeting tonight and she smelled like booze. Sat next to me. Now, when this has happened before, I've stayed away from someone who was drunk at a meeting because I was reacting with my defects of judgment and fear.

Tonight I welcomed her. Then after the meeting I spoke with her and offered her my number, and offered to give her a ride in the future. I really hope that she takes me up on it.

Anyway, if I hadn't read that post here and read all the responses and reading the ESH of others who have been in that situation, I never would've reached out to that woman. And I feel good.

So, thanks.
