Old familiar feeling coming back...
Posted On 08/01/2008 14:48:19 by paintingmyway

I think my biggest trigger is being lonely and wishing I had someone special in my life.  I know I am not ready for a relationship and will not be for quite some time but every now and then I think....well, I am 43 and not getting any younger...maybe I should just go for it.  I am not capable of having a healthy relationship right now.  I know you must love yourself before you can love somebody else...praying about it was helping tremendously but now....that old familiar feeling is lurking....!

Find some meetings, get active-get a sponsor, work the steps- you won't be lonely much !

 I was told: no major changes, to stay single - no dating/ relationships, for a year-

I needed at least that to build my relationship with myself and a Higher power-

I am grateful to have followed that suggestion!        Nia

Keep prayin girlfriend! Loneliness comes and goes, like everything else. I can totally relate. I am almost year and a half sober and do not have a significant other either. I still know that I am not ready. I believe that God will bring someone into my life that is good for me when I am good and ready for it. It definitely does suck being lonely though. I have a dog and a cat, but sometimes they just don't cut it. When I am in my bed at nite extra lonely, I ask God to cuddle me! I know it sounds weird, but I swear it works! I tell Him and I am lonely, and then ask Him to hold me and comfort me.
God Bless sweetie
