I am an alcoholic and pill addict in recovery. I recently started dating a man who can drink socially. We do plenty that doesn't involve drinking and it's a lot of fun.
In our short time together we have gone to the movies, played Scrabble, talked for hours, watched a movie at home over pizza, and messed about on the computer together. Once you become accustomed to doing things without drinking, they become more natural. And it's great to not be hungover the next morning.
Stick around and keep posting.
