Gir,

Glad you are here and not drinking. I can relate to loved ones not wanting to quit. Not a spouse, but my blood family. Mom, Dad, and sibs all still drink and drug.

I am making a new sober life with or without them. My sobriety is my top concern. I don't want to die being a drunk.

I am not going to say move on, I will say move forward. If that entails living single for a while or dating.

We all know addicts quit when they are ready, not when they are asked/told to.

I know what being alone feels like. I dated off and on until I got married at 37. Even now, me and my wife don't sleep in the same room because we work opposite shifts.

Stay clean and try to not lose another sober minute to sadness. I know it is easier said then done. I obsess often, but I try to stay analytical to defeat it.

Thanks.
