I have to say another "wow" by this article! Its sad to say that I am currently in this situation.

I willingly AND unwillingly became involved with another recovery member. We hung out a couple times after meetings, I didn't think much of it, but out of the blue he made it VERY clear that he was attracted to me. Ordinarily I'd clam up and passively say no.. which I sorta did. But I said sorry not interested like five times.. and he's still pushing me! Its akward since we go to meetings, I do enjoy being his friend, I don't want to *** on him but I can't stand being "forced" to be with someone.

I'm just learning about boundaries and I know I have to learn to stick up for myself in a NON-passive way, and I've been to enough meetings and read enough literature to be grateful for this lesson. I know it'll get solved one way or another
