nothing wrong with that in the early stages of ones sobriety
we are sorting through a lot as we go without the drink

sure the action may be a little slower now
with time I realized
that some of the things I thought to be fun when drinking
were actually not very moral
I don't miss doing those things

Exactly. I highly doubt you were the Don Juan you thought, at least I have come to learn I wasn't. I strongly suspect my hyper-outgoing personality while drunk was only well received by fellow inebriates.
At almost 90-days in I'm still adjusting to being in social situations sober. I didn't want to be social for a while, don't expect this to change over night. But I promise you it does get easier and better.

I kidded myself that every day was a holiday, when I drank. I didn't even need people, I would have my own party just me and my faithful but evil friend, booze.

Well rid. I'm now boring, sane, not hyper, hungeoverless, happy? I'll say so.

The crutches have gone, I wobbled with my baby steps for a while, but I am now taking firm steps, being me without booze.

It's exhilarating but I am also aware it could creep up on me, like a thief in the night, but I hope I've learned from sr to come running here when I need help (I come here when I don't need help, too). To have faith in my sobriety.
