Justin, if you feel that you are not ready for dating, then don't do it. It's really not worth it to risk sobriety. I've met lots of great people online, many I've never seen IRL, and yet I've had amazing interactions with a few of them. I sometimes did not find these much less involving (and taxing) emotionally than 3D life relationships though, it can get pretty intense, sometimes even more because it allows fantasies to flow freely without much reality check, at least in my experiences. But maybe that's my fault at least partially

I would suggest that you put your safety first for a while, whatever that means to you, and continue doing the great work that you have been doing in your recovery so far.
