I hear you there. I'm not really looking to jump into a full blown relationship here just yet. It's funny because normally I am a long term relationship person but for the past year or so I've been more casually dating. It's been about 6 months or so since I've done that because I was too wrapped up in myself for a bit.
Now I feel like since I have been sober for a little bit and feel a million times better I want to try and start dating again. And I don't know, to me it just seems safer for me to hang out with a sober guy rather than someone who is gonna drink around me or show up to meet me already drunk or something like that.
One baby step at a time. I'm definitely not trying to rush anything.
