Hey Chy,
I always say "yes" when someone asks me to be their sponsor. I believe it's my responsibility to say "yes." I, like you, tell them what I'd like for them to do. We trade phone numbers and the rest is up to them. I'm not in charge, God is. I've done my part up to that point. If the relationship grows into something more meaningful and we kick it up a notch or two, then so be it, but it's not up to me. My soul prupose is to make myself available to the person. If they don't call like I ask, I call them once or twice. If they still don't call, I fade out of the picture and wait. I've learned that if I start to feel like I'm investing more into the relationship than the other person, somethings wrong. Maybe I'm trying to control things. Maybe I'm being too demanding. Maybe I'm expecting too much, and we all know that expectations are nothing more than premeditated resentments. Nevertheless, I've sponsored dozens of guys and I have a 100% success rate. I'M STILL SOBER!!!
