Alcoholics

How many alcoholics would prefer to not see their crush or someone they have feelings for over a drink. Why??? I see this happen often please explain ? I understand addiction to a point but to isolate yourself??? Strange

In the early stages of recovery this would not be an uncommon practice among alcoholics.
They are protecting themselves and their sobriety comes first.

@KiwiBird never thought of it like this … isn’t isolation a trigger for depression and relapse??

@Creolequeen Being offered "a drink" is more likely to lead to a relapse and staying away is protection.
