Telling potential roommate about your recovery
I wanted to ask for the collective advice on the forum about this.
I'm considering moving out of my house and into a house-mate situation. I don't "need" to rather I want to save some cash and I would enjoy the company.
As a drinker, I'd avoided this as they might be uncomfortable with my drinking or interfere with it, but at present I'm very secure in my sobriety/recovery.
I have an interview/visit set up with someone. This person is not a drinker, he sounded very much like a normie.
The question to the group is, what would you tell them?
He might wonder where I go several nights a week but I don't need to say anything, or, I could flat out tell him that I'm in long-term recovery and very involved in AA.
I'm leaning on the latter, the truth usually serves me well, yet this is something very private.
What would you do?
CJ.
