Yeahgr8, I don't think there is necessarily anything wrong with her being around people that are drinking. What matters is whether she is coping with her recognition of the fact she cannot drink, and unless I am missing something, she is doing that. If it doesn't make sense for her to be in that context in order to be mindful about her sobriety, then I would understand if she decided to avoid the context. Also: I realize we all have to be ourselves, but saying "your fault" to somebody seems too abrasive, like you are breathing down her neck. You will probably get closer to helping her by not using that approach, and I suspect your intention is to be helpful.
