I second what Reprieve stated about the fact that we alcoholics have issues already with forming healthy relationships because of our baggage and insecurities. What would be different about forming them within walls of an AA meeting? I had to tell myself this as well. I'm a loner by nature, and I thought that it was me that was the problem, too, when I didn't make friends as easily as I thought at meetings. In fact I stopped going because after a while I didn't feel like I fit in. So you're not the only one that feels like that.
