You're pining for a relationship that was conceived in alcohol!! You certainly don't want to live like that again, do you? If you couldn't tolerate it while you were sober, it's not going to be any different now. Obviously this relationship wasn't good for you.
I just passed 18 years clean & sober -- and I can tell you that I NEVER think of alcohol. It's just not a part of my life anymore. I no longer have the option of taking a drink. So I just don't think of it anymore. It's been like this for MANY YEARS -- it was probably around my first year anniversary that I stopped thinking about alcohol frequently, cause I KNEW i couldn't have it anymore. So rest assured that it will not tempt you forever. That will go away.
I wish you the very best. Stay sober -- the life of alcohol is hell! God bless. Hugs, Lee
