I'm going to agree with Stugotz. Though I know how it feels, I'm familiar with that thinking in early recovery, you think you've 'planned' a relapse 'on purpose' to try something out. But I think it's always a rationalization/justification on some level and doesn't end up proving any points.

When I got sober it had to be first priority, and come before everything else, no exceptions. That sometimes meant a few inconveniences... but nothing so drastic the sky would cave in. If you are feeling vulnerable enough to post it here, I'd put off a tempting situation for now. It may be possible to face it when you are feeling more established in recovery.
