Minding my own business and its hard!


Hi all,

I am diligently trying to Mind my own business at the moment. Found out my ex bf whose been sober for 4mos and who I was to meet for cofffee this week.....went to jail a couple of days ago on a contempt of court charge. I saw him at mtg. on Mon and he asked me to coffee. As I mentioned in some of my earlier posts we had broke off the relationhsip in order for us to focus on our recovery although we still had feelings for each other we (and our sponsors) knew it was best for both of us.It hasnt been easy but clearly see why its best.
Anyway, today I wondered why he hadnt called and an AA friend told me he was in jail. I believe he will be there until Oct., I wont go into the details but he was in rehab when the court date came around, he cant afford a lawyer and apparently is waiting for a court appointed attorney.

My heart hurts deeply and I am trying not to focus on him being in jail but I want to cry. I love this man, he has been doing so well and me too, I had some hope for us, we set boundaries of nothing but coffee together until he was sober a year. And this was to be our first coffee get together.

Anyway, I know my HP will continue to care for me and know he is caring for him too.
Please keep me in your prayers. G

Sorry to here about ex/bf being in jail.    imho, maybe HP decided it wasn't time for coffee yet. 


Hope things work out for him and you continue with your program while he's gone.  You are right, HP will always care for you.
