I’m right there with you! I have no issues with potential suitors drinking but hesitant to enter the dating world sober because I know I will run into these issues. If I have no issue with being sober why should they lol
Focus on you. I'm glad to not be dating anymore tho. I feel for ya.
Stay true, there’s a sober man out there
It’s their loss not yours.. if they find something wrong because you don’t drink, they aren’t the right kind of man you need anyway.. you go girl.. you got this..
Tried it. No one in my area on it. Or that’s interested in me anyway
DM me. Let’s talk
Simply put, I just don't. I feel I still have more to work on and work out before I can get myself back out there.
You will find the right one. Don't worry, let it happen. I met my wife on an online dating platform because I was fresh out of prison and on probation with a curfew so couldn't go out. Had specifically on my profile that I don't drink and only looking for someone to spend my life with and no hook ups and for months I met nothing but girls that lead me on and wanted just to hook up. I thought it was only guys like this but apparently not. Well long story short I finally met the one and we've been happily married for almost 9 years! And I relapsed after a few years and she still stuck by and supported me (in a non enabling way). We now have a beautiful 3 year old princess and are still very much happy and in love. Just be patient and continue to grow yourself. ❤🩹
Just give it time—I give the whole I’m a recovered alcoholic/in AA conversation before I even go on the date to weed out the closed-minded ones
Unfortunately it is and it’s the same way for men
You love you so you got it made:ok_hand:
It’s been the same for me. Its a big world though.
Same here. Not sure what to do but do what I practice..have faith, hand it over, and keep doing the next right thing.
Their loss forsure! Good for you not settling. Mr. Right will come around. My sponsor tells me focus on the process of recovery and when the time is right it will bless you with the right person. I’m at 7 1/2 months. So I’m trying to hit that 1 year mark and see what’s out there for me
The post was mean't for sober living and trying to date. Not date on the app.. js.. always a wise guy that pops up somewhere.
Had the same thing happen. And u know what if they are like that…Not worth it. They obviously don’t respect your work and progress that you have done for yourself. Their loss.
<3
I am having the same problem! I live in Lancaster PA and if this app is at all an indicator of people in recovery in my area trying to date, there must not be anyone near me. I tried Bumble but it seems like people get weird about dating once they find out I am in recovery. We will all find someone eventually, I just didn't think it would be so difficult. Keep your head up and stay focused on being the best you possible and I'm sure someone will come along, that's what I'm hoping for atleast lol
Whao I was a first year graduate of the woodlands highschool
I’m having the same issue.
