Why?
Because it's often difficult breaking up with someone.
Fellow at the meeting last night was down because he too is having a hard time getting over a relationship.
Personally, I've never found it easy saying goodbye or having someone else tell me that. Unfortunately, it's all part of life.
One thing is for certain drinking again isn't going to help.
Even if you did get back together if you're drinking it'll be more of the some old, same old.
