In closed meetings, those that do not identify themselves as alcoholics are asked to leave (hopefully in a polite manner).
Yup. I've seen it. It's really uncomfortable for me to watch, but , our primary purpose is to stay sober and to help others achieve sobreity. If you don't want to get sober, and attend a closed meeting, you're jeopardizing the sobriety of those who ARE there to get sober, and will be asked to leave.

That said, stick around till afterwards, someone will be glad to talk to you and give out their number. Or, just get on line and find an open meeting.
