dont know much about the whole story but on this:

Everyone at her AA meeting supported her slipping as long as she came back to the meeting... and made me the bad guy.
I am pissed. So am I to assume that AA is all about slipping and being cheered for coming back and anyone who says otherwise becomes the enemy?


forst off, my OPINION is slips happen on ice and relapse ends with a drink. people have pre meditated drunks.
AA nor anyone who has worked the program supports drinking again. i have heard a few times in AA,"its ok if you "slip". you made it back."
i call BS because its NOT ok. it does happen, but that doesnt make it ok. if a person is playing,"it was just a "slip"" game, then they aint ready to get sober.

i'll guarantee not everyone at the AA meeting supported it and cheered.

and a good alcoholic will start playing the victim.

but dont blame AA for your marital problems- thats a different issue.
