It may just be me feeling defensive, since this is coming from a guy who hounded me about having my own "program" and then tells jokes about it.
I understand why you feel defensive Tuffgirl.
When my ex would make his little snide comments, it was disturbing because I felt he was belittling the hard work I was putting into recovery.
Now, if he has some AA jokes he can tell, he ought to stick to that.
At least till he gets the wetness out from behind his ears.
Sigh....recovery, sometimes I'm good, sometimes.....not so much.
