aj487 Posted February 6, 2006 Posted February 6, 2006 There is a girl that I like. This girl and I have a strange past. Several years ago, I charmed my way into her heart simply by speaking to her. She was friends with an ex-girlfriend of mine. We hit it off immediately by only speaking to one another on the phone, before we "met". The problem was I had a drinking problem. I met her incoherent, which was absolutely humiliating. I never had the guts to pursue hanging out with her after that. I continued to speak to her. There was a lapse of communication for about 1 1/2 yrs. She had become disinterested as is natural. I have since taken care of my drinking problem and been sober for over half a year.I recently talked to her on instant messaging, my reception was good I think. I was able to make her laugh as I did years ago. I figure the best thing I can do for myself is try to meet her as I should have long ago. I just don't know if I can ever get past that image I must have of a substance abuser. I absolutely love her personality and believe we are compatible. I don't know if she can ever take me seriously.Anyone have any advice? thanks
Art_Critic Posted February 6, 2006 Posted February 6, 2006 Just be yourself.. she will see that your sobriety is serious and she will take you seriously.. Let her make up her own mind.. she will anyhow in the end.. Like I said just be yourself Does she know you no longer drink ?
