At today's AA meeting PART 2

I will keep the details brief. As some of you know I am 83 days sober and just started AA a few weeks ago.

At today's AA meeting I spoke up about how my wife's daily drinking bothers me. Someone told me I should try Alanon. Another guy gave me a phone number of a guy that could sponsor me cause he is going through a similar situation with his wife.

When I got home my wife was gone - even though she was drinking all day she went to the bar - just to **** me off cause she hates me going to AA. She thinks I trash talk her and that I am looking for other women.

I told her I go to AA to help myself; and I lied about talking about her tonight. Threatened by my association with AA, she told me she is not going to put up with me going. It was a flashback of my childhood when my father was drunk and threatening my mother cause she was in Alanon. She quit Alanon back then and I have decided to quit AA.

I have looked into maybe checking out Alanon but odds of me actually going is slim.
