Sober Dating: Questions For Discussion

Sober members of Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (S.L.A.A.) share their experience, strength and hope around dating in recovery. This book contains articles and other resources contributed by S.L.A.A. members, content from the S.L.A.A. pamphlet on Romantic Obsession, and questions for discussion about staying sane and sober while dating. Also included is a sample meeting format to help the reader form an S.L.A.A. meeting with a focus on Sober Dating, and related questions for discussion ( to be used for personal reflection, or in conversation with a sponsor or sober fellow).
This book may help readers who have problems pacing themselves at the beginning of a relationship (share too much or too little), who find themselves frequently in fantasy or obsession before or after dating someone, may feel they rush to (or avoid) sex in a relationship, have been gaslit or neglected by a romantic partner, and/or who need constant reassurance and input from their dates. Sober Dating: Questions for Discussion offers a recovery-based solution to many of the painful, awkward , and bewildering parts of searching for a romantic partner, and starting a healthy relationship.
