Sponsor
 
can an A have a romantic relationship with his/her sponsor?

It's a bad idea, but good or bad, romances do happen.

It is highly suggested in most fellowships that we find sponsors of the same sex, that avoids the attraction that can happen when two people share intimate details about their lives.

I'm sorry if this is the case for you. Have you asked him about this?

Hugs

hi ann,

no this is for my xabf, he cliaims that his recovering coke addict yet still drinking alcohol gf is his sponsor.

sounds like a bomb ready to go off......a recovering cocaine addict with a female sponsor that is drinking. Oh my heavens.........

I'm glad that he is your x BF at least. When I hear things that my x is doing I can really get triggered. I've found that the further I stay away from any information about him that I can the better off I am.

in LGBT groups do men sponsor women and vice-versa? legitimate question.
