[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm in recovery. Just ask him how he feels and accept his answer. I find it more uncomfortable and awkward when people treat alcohol differently than they normally would just because I'm there. It's an effort to be respectful, I get it, but it's not like I can't be at the same table with alcohol. [/quote] +1 though it depends on his stage of recovery. my husband would have said he was "fine" with it after one year of sobriety, even though that would have been a lie, because he doesn't like to rock the boat or make anyone uncomfortable. he's been sober now for 4 years and that "fine" would be the truth. if he's been sober for a few years, i would definitely accept his answer at face value.[/quote]
