Initially you're saying a guy from A.A brought round some wine and you drank it.It sounded like you were blaming A.A for this.I don't agree.It is always your decision to pick up.You could've said no.And I agree with Rob.B-I don't think you by any means are giving us the full story here.
Now you're saying you hooked up with the guy AGAIN? Um...'Fool me once....' This guy is obviously a jerk-whether he belongs to A.A or Scientology!I couldn't care less-you still CHOSE to go out with him again.That says more about you than him.
I'm sorry-but you cannot pin this on A.A (and for the record-I don't even belong to A.A)
Go to whatever group works for you-I truly wish you well.But don't come here and blame A.A for your lack of judgement or inability to say no.
Jules.
Sorry. There are some of the most wonderful people in AA and some of the worst. Ok, I am a bad judge of character and I do own that.
You don't go to AA, so you don't know. And not directed at you, per se, but there is a lot of this stuff that goes on in AA. They call in 13th stepping. You'll have someone with YEARS in the program do things they would never tell their sponsor about. The last few days do fall into that category - for him. I don't go to AA so I don't have a sponsor.
And anyway you slice it, there is a saying in AA...Love and Tolerance is our code. You do NOT tell a woman she is a murderer over a political disagreement.
BTW, the alcohol takes away our judgement and inability to say no, as we have this disease, yunno?
