Yeah, what happenned with me wasn't so clear. I had an NA sponsor who moved out of the area and suggested one of his sponsees for me. I knew the guy and had seen him at some meetings. When I asked him to sponsor me I knew he went to some AA meetings but thought he was mostly NA. As time went on I learned the opposite. At first it didn't bother me, then when he started pushing the big book on me it became an issue. We worked steps 1 and 2 out of the NA workbook, step 3 was more of a discussion no real material used. For step 4 he gave me the sheets for the AA step and obviously this is an issue. I have learned recently he is just in AA no longer attends NA meetings. Obviously this have to be addressed. I have 6 months clean and he's been my sponsor since i hit 30 days and we get along well. It's a pain to have to change sponsors but i'll prob have to.
