Relationship question:

I have a question for you all.... did any of your experience any relationship changes when you started really working the program? What I have noticed is a few of my relationships have changed since I am now practicing some of the principles. For instance I do not any longer gossip, I also say what I mean, (not beat around the bush and hope people "get it" etc.)

No longer do I allow others to gossip to me and I also no longer allow others to control who I am friends with anymore. (I was such a people pleaser coming into this program and could be swayed so easily...) I could be a little blunt at times though.

Anyway, 3 women have really pulled back from me..... I see it as a healthy thing for me, but at the same time it hurts a little. Any thoughts or experiences of yours?

Having said all of this however, my husband who is not compulsive in any area of his life, alcohol, drugs, food etc... our relationship has increased 10 fold!!!!

I do trust my HP who he wants in my life...just wondering about ya'll....
