Old familiar feeling coming back...
Posted On 08/01/2008 13:48:19 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

I know where you are at my friend!  I could write a book on this stuff, but if you know you are not ready, then you are not ready, focus on you and the wonderful person you are.

When the time is right, that special person WILL come x
