[quote=Anonymous]I've been in recovery in AA 25 plus years. Sounds like his sponsor is religious. Religion is not part of the program. Finding a power greater than yourself is, because we alcoholics don't have power over our desire to drink. We drink when we shouldn't and can't predict how much we'll drink. Don't get married anytime soon. Go to 6 al-anon meetings, not all the same one. Ask in the al-anon meeting "Who is a good person for me to talk to? My fiancé is trying to get sober. ". Nothing wrong with therapy, either. Your fiancé sounds very manipulative and controlling. Focus on what are YOUR needs, and are they being met? FWIW I started going to church after many years and never mention it in meetings. (People are free to ask me and I'll tell them). I know people who are Jewish, Muslim, agnostic, Buddhists, Taoists, everything. AA encourages seeking with an open mind. " God of YOUR understanding."[/quote]
