Comment on What Could Have Been by Sharono

Yeah, hotel rooms are haunted by the energies of those who have stayed there? Maybe !!!! You sure are reading some energy signals that I know too well. Seriously grateful that I don’t have to live in the shadows of pending disasters every moment of every day. That kind of life does stuff to people, stuff just breaks human hearts and assaults human spirits. Now I am almost a ‘square’ and that is fine by me.

Comment on Mixed Relationships by jen (xnavygal)

Thanks Caiman Hunter for this blog. I am the one who started the group “Mixed Couples” on the ITR website. I have been in recovery for a mere 3plus years and experienced a couple of stumbling blocks along the way (relapses). I was and am hoping to here from others in recovery about their struggles and victories with their partner who is not in recovery. My husband and I have been together fourteen years and he saw the wonderful confident me and also experienced my eight years of addiction that robbed me from myself.
Of course, both my addiction and recovery has made a profound impact on him as well. I don’t expect him to “get it”, however he still has his own views and opinions about the program and fellowship, which often times are different from my own. I tend to struggle with balance between recovery and family, (we also have a 9yr old daughter).
I thought perhaps the ES&H of others in a mixed relationship would be a benefit to us all. Much love and big HUGZS, Jen (xnavygal)

Not everyone in a “mixed” relationship is as lucky as you. There are many pitfalls such as jealousy and dealing with your partner drinking when you might be going through a tough time, possibly having a case of the “F*ck its”. I’ve been blessed to be in a relationship with a woman with 25 years clean while I have 29 years this month. I feel that we need to be open minded to those less fortunate than us struggling in these “mixed” relationships. Wow…re-reading that last sentence…who woulda thunk it? LOL

Comment on Everything But the Kitchen Sink by cody nic

That bugs me so much. Hopefully it’s better than what I’m dealing with denture gum glue and toothpaste all over the sink. It’s appalling and it offends me to maintain body hygiene in the kitchen were I prepare and cook food. ><

>>And my sponsor said to me, “And if you change your attitude, there would be one less asshole.”

Well, people at ihatemen.org sure are assholes. I can vouch for that.

Right on. A critical consideration. We have already harmed thesde people. Does it make sense in recovery to harm them again? Not ever.

Perhaps he was just trying to “Douche it Forward.”
