Giving up is NOT an option.

yeah that was funny.

I keep thinking about what you said before about anyone can break up with anyone else for pretty much any reason anytime.
I am like

And I am also hoping that isn't true. (says Pollyanna).

I have an AA sponsor in name only. She's a cool lady and I really like her, but we have never really done any step work together. I got through step 5 in treatment, and when I was ready to dig into the rest of the steps, she was going through some really heavy personal stuff, one thing after another, and I felt bad asking her to start spending time with me. I was doing fine on my own, so it just never happened. It's OK. I know she'd drop everything and help me if I really needed it. She checks in on me if I don't go to meetings for a while, and we stay in touch. I did finish the steps on my own, maybe not as thoroughly as if I had her working with me, but I'm ok for now. I do think VMan's sponsor should have chosen a method other than text to "break up" with him, but sponsors do come and go, and I guess I'd be glad to be rid of a sponsor who couldn't bother to even call me.

Vman- that is a very avoidance way of finishing being a sponsor, I think. Oh well, better you know. You do really well.

My second toaster just committed suicide. Perhaps I am guilty of crimes against toast.
