Had a great talk with my sponsor on Friday, so she knows everything. She said that normal drinkers do drink too much sometimes, and do the same stupid stuff we did, the difference is, they learn from it, smack themselves on the forhead and say not doin that again. My boyfriend went to play pool with his buddies Friday night like he always does and went back to the bar that he can't remember being at. No one remembers him doing anything, so he got a little more of the story. He was drinking a Sprite and one of his friends asked if he wanted a beer and he was like, nah I'm ok with my sprite. They kept pressing and he kept saying I'm really ok with my sprite. Finally they laughed and asked him if he was scared and he said ***** yeah!!!! I'm ok with my sprite!!!!! It sounds to me like an isolated incident, and my sponsor thinks so as well, though we can never be sure. We worked an inventory on it, and she said "More will be revealed". She completely agreed with me that I'm the only person who can get me drunk. She knows me inside and out, knows my inventories, and knows that I'm doing the work it takes to stay sober. I told her that if it becomes a problem, I'll leave faster than an active alkie can drink a beer. She also knows him, knows our story. So....countless people are keeping an eye on the situation. I'll be ok. I'm standing by him, for now. Her other sponsee was there too, and she agreed that she wouldn't do this if it was just some guy she'd just met, but she knows our story too, and knows this is not some guy off the street. I'm feeling much better then I did Friday. It was great to go to a meeting and cry and grab on to my sponsor. I told my boyfriend that he made me run to my sponsor and work some steps haha, which is a wonderful thing.
