When beginning a new relationship is it an invasion of privacy to run a background check on your potential new partner or is it your right to know who you are getting involved with?
I don`t mind helping her or being her shoulder to cry on, and when I offer to go to meetings with her, I feel like I am badgering her. I don`t mind doing the things I do for her because I LOVE her, I will always be there for her no matter what it takes.
Thanks for your kind words, great advice and for understanding me.
I have a friend who is an alcoholic and I don`t understand why. She drinks from morning until bedtime, acts like a fool and is often sick. Why does she continue to do this to herself? She is my age and was very beautiful but the drinking and the stressful lifestyle she lives has aged her dramatically. I just don't understand, jac.
Go drink some more beer, you are way off topic. I hope you feel okay in the latter part of the morning/day. Merry Christmas to you and I wish you the best in 2014. Bottom`s up!
Ummmm....feel free to look at my profile, but I don`t see what that has to do with this thread or what you will learn from it regarding this topic. Do get back to me, I`m curious what the HotrodLarrysAlmighty has to say.
I never said I was perfect, so sue me for not following up. I didn`t see it in the forum rules that I HAVE to reply to the people who posted responses. I was observing and taking in the opinions of others thinking I may learn something I am not familiar with.
You seem a little uptight and possibly seeking an argument. You should not take things so seriously, you may raise your blood pressure.
I am not a doctor nor am I an alcoholic. I have never understood how or why one becomes addicted to alcohol. From what I understand, it can run in the family, but is that because we learn what we see? Sometimes I feel it`s an excuse to have another drink, but I have never walked in those shoes so it is hard for me to say or understand.
Invasion of privacy or right to know?
