Kudos to you for your strength!!!!!!!

I was arrested for DUI in December 2004 - I hired a high-power attorney and got off with a Reckless Driving Charge.

Sadly, I stuck with not drinking for about 6 months.

Then I started back and it seemed even worse than before. I had my last drink 01/26/08 and can honestly say I feel better now than I ever have. Quit cold turkey too - just woke up one day and decided it would be a good idea and I was READY.

Well, we all were probably "Fun Drunks" - LOL! I know I was! I was THE PARTY GIRL. In the small town I live in I was very well known for my ability to be the life of the party.

I don't think it was very nice of him to say that. I don't think you become a "prude" when you quit drinking. Ha! What happens is you actually THINK about CONSEQUENCES of your actions.

I'd just ignore it and continue on your path - don't let it get you down! I'm sure you're not a prude.....it's just NOW YOU ACTUALLY THINK WITH A CLEAR HEAD and, after all you have been through! That is incredible! Stay strong......maybe your sobriety will become contagious to him!
