I think so. My ex started going to meetings constantly, up to twice a day, every day. He shut me out too. You would think such dedication to sobriety would be wonderful, but the truth is he never got sober and still drinks to this day. He was obsessed with going to meetings, but he did not actually want to work the program. Looking back, I think it was probably another weird form of denial on his part, like "Look what a good person I am for going to all these meetings! I'm not an alcoholic anymore." But as I said, he never quit drinking and then quit going to AA and called it a "cult".
