In the long run you should hope he dates every gal at AA. it makes YOU all the more precious. Don't sell yourself short. By being gracious and intelligent, you were a feather in his cap. If there is another woman, she has to measure up to you. Women in recovery will either stay sober or start drinking again. let him have a taste of what that's like. Sit tight an let him have a good long experience of life without someone like you in it. The sting of the day will wear off. Today is a new day and a new guy can't ask you out until you are available. If this guy want you back, he needs to understand there is now a new element, competition. Get out and meet some new people. Open yourself up to other men. Go out with your friends. Sure it hurts and its upsetting to think his life might be going on without you but.....if that's the case, its best for you to get on with yours. If not, he can earn his way back because you are a hottie and the men are out there. There is nothing so scrumptuous as finding out that men have been daring themselves to ask you out. You say that this bothers you, if your phone just rang and it was Brad Pitt...........
