don't get IN to her drama, her life, her problems. don't try to play marriage counselor.

This is from the AA pamphlet on Sponsorship, as a refresher:

I understand what you're saying. You're right-- I won't offer her any advice.

I don't view this as drama.

I have no intention of playing therapist or marriage counselor.

However, I did want to know what the connection is between intimacy issues and alcoholism and/or ACOA.
