Need On Line Sponsor


Am looking for a sponsor. Am fairly new to Alanon, have been addicted to this chatroom and board since end of Dec. 2005, and it has helped me cope.


I am wanting today to stay in the marriage with my A. Not sure what direction that is headed, but for today I want to stay. Not too sure about him.


I would prefer a woman who has remained in her marriage to her A. 


Someone who has worked the steps and can help me learn.  I love to read, and love to learn.


Waiting to hear!


Thanks! Becky1

well becky i don't qualify cuz i dumped my A,  i wanted recovery he did not....so we split


but i strongly suggest u  watch the posts....look at what the women are saying,  R they working the program STRONG??  doing the STEPS????   focusing on the SOLUTION rather than just the problem.....just observe,  and when someone "resonates"  w/u....ask them...


now don't take it personally if they say "NO"   people do if they don't think they can offer u anything...just move on down the road and keep looking.....i am glad u want sponser...shows me u r serious about recovery..........rosie

Thanks Rosie.  I was pretty nervous about asking for one, but I know I need one.  Thanks also for the tips!  HP will send me one when the time is right, right?

Hi Becky,


Looks like you are making some good choices for yourself in looking for a sponsor.  Wish I could help you in that area but I also had to finally make the decision to let my marriage to my alcoholic come to an end after catching him in an affair.  Found out that in 21 years of marriage to him he had never been completely faithful.  I will never regret the time spent though as we had three wonderful children together and although there are struggles with them, they are great. 


Keep up the good work!  We are at our best when we stay in today and take each day as they come.  We can't change yesterday, and tomorrow has enough issues of it's own.


Take Care!


Cilla

You go girl! I'd be honored, but I'm not even close yet. Besides I'm not convinced I'd make a good sponsor. But I'll be happy to slap you with a trout any time you need it, as long as you will do the same for me!

Live strong,
Karilynn
