I think it’s starts with finding the right person that understands and respects the way you are choosing to live your life.

I have a year under my belt and still trying to find my right person.

Good luck and keep your eye on the prize!

I recommend not getting into anything serious if your in early recovery, just my experience. When things didnt work out with my ex i started drinking again. Having the restraint to not pick up that drink was really tough cuz i said to myself “f*ck it” and also “where am i going to meet babes? The bar.” Horrible. Thats just my advice. Im in early recovery, 3 months. Id like to get laid but im more interested in making friends, building a stronger relationship with my crew/work family, and discovering my hobbies when im bored. Online dating has really turned me off. Im considering going to aa/daa/na events. Here in madison, wi folks play volleyball. But i think its healthy to join clubs and sports, and be transparent with your addictions with ppl so you dont slip up.

Lossid has a dating app. You are in the community app. Just switch over. Good luck

Define "Healthy"..
Sister you're an alcoholic/addict.... From this point forward nothing is "healthy".
If you're less than 1 years of sobriety the best relationship you can get into is with yourself. If yourself first before you fix/phuq up someone else.
