Also, I am not a social AA person. I don't go to make friends, and don't have anyone from my group that I do things with. I have never done the 'dinner' thing after the meetings either, it's just not my thing. Most of my social network is just customers that I see daily, definitely nothing very deep or meaningful, but that is me.

Since getting sober I have actually gotten quite comfortable being alone versus needing to be with other people. This is not me isolating, I just prefer playing tennis at the club, working, being with my wife and kids (who I am lucky to still have) and reading a lot. It was just a choice that I made and it was a gradual thing.
