Meeting People
I'm just wondering how those of you out there that quit the drink found it meeting a new partner?
It is so hard to meet people that don't drink or do drink and are cool being with someone who is TT.
I realised recently that one of contributing factors to my relapses has been feeling lonely and knowing I find it easier to find a partner if I'm back on the drink because it's more sociably accepted.
I'm on a dating website and as soon as people realise I don't drink they run a mile. I guess the obvious conclusion there is that it says a lot about them as people but you hear my frustration.
Can only someone in recovery truly understand someone in recovery?
