I went to a lot of open meetings here and there with my ex-husband. It was really helpful to me to listen to people share about what they were doing to stay sober. I learned a little about when to be encouraging and when to just back off. LOL, I will confess I yelled at him a couple of times in the midst of certain arguments that he needed to call his SPONSOR. Then I'd leave so he could, if he wanted to, and so I wouldn't know whether he did or not (nothing worse than micromanaging someone else's recovery).
