So far, it's been my experience in life that people get what they get when they do what they do. NA is no exception. Folks that engage in this type of diseased behavior will reap what they sow. I don't even need to help it along. They'll get the natural consequences of both their good and their bad behavior in God's own time. We all will.
I give the new women some positive, loving attention, so that I can be part of the solution, to try to be the change I want to see in the fellowship. That's all I can do, that and ensuring that when I chair my home group meeting, I do so as a trusted servant in accordance with our traditions. And to show by my actions a good and attractive example.
And I also now make it a point that when one of the newcomer men come to me after I chair a meeting and ask for my phone number, that I don't give it to them, that I instead introduce them to some men that I know will let them call and will be good for them to fellowship with.
Love,
KJ
