fat ralphy Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 @m123455 being around people who support your sobriety is huge. Even at 15+ years in there are times I start thinking “hmmmm I could probably have a drink, I am probably normal now” - but my chick or my family tell me im tripping. Couple weeks ago I took my chick to a fancy dinner. They had Henekein Zero on the menu and ordered one - dude brought me a regular beer. The minute a sip crossed my lips fireworks went off in my brain, I knew it was alcohol. Had my girlfriend take it and checked the waiter. She immediately checked my ass and was like you are not drinking this……I think a lot of people would have just figured its only one, go for it. Waiter was a lightweight clown, forgot our appetizer course until I reminded him after the main course. He comped the dish but was still a clown. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is legit of your girl to take it seriously considering she did not know you in your drinking days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdleHandz Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I "quit" quitting drinking every month at some point; its a disruptor for me. I don't fail at life but I could excel. The latter obviously is more appealing. I often just find myself too burnt from the things I deal with and I am often completely alone so when I get home I'll crack a few and deal with the stuff I have to do after work, then eventually at some point in the month ill hit the bottle and it'll just be one of those nights. Nights I wake up after feeling ashamed. I'm at the point where I am just done. I get my kid on the weekends and I just want us to fuckin ball; and I know that can't happen unless I'm really done. we have the most amazing times, though. literally my saving grace. cliche but honest. one love. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
