So true. I liked to view the fellowship as a training ground so to speak. The rooms are often a place you can practice interacting with others.
I mentioned the other day about the group guru with over 25 years of sobriety time who started working with me. After co-workers began avoiding him the man he started looking for me. However, this is my work place and not an AA meeting and I didn't want to socialize with during breaks or at lunch. I find him just too opinionated.
He wasn't happy about this and it became uncomfortable seeing him at meetings but I learned to set boundaries.
Looking back I found this uncomfortable situation to be a good learning experience.
