amen to moving on

"So I get home and he sends me a text message wondering why I ignored him and if I wanted some company tonight.

Now I need to go reread the posts of "that night" and remember the fear and the anger."

I heard the "I promise I'll go tomorrow" line regarding AA all day yesterday. I didn't fall for it. Today he called me. He wanted to know if I wanted to get a bite to eat. I said I would love to go out for dinner after he went to a meeting. He knows I won't even consider going home until he attends a meeting, so his response was "Well, you don't have to come home tonight. I just meant we could go to dinner." Funny how he interprets me telling him "I won't consider coming home until you go to a meeting" as "we can hang-out, go to dinner, see a movie, etc. and you can avoid meetings and keep drinking. You can do whatever, I'm just going to stay at my mom's for a while".

<my eyes are rolling right now>

stay strong, stick to your guns, and look forward to a life where you aren't a prisoner of alcohol.
