Today I find myself in such a parylized state of fear and resentment. I assume it involves unmet expectations.
Things have been going well with my Sig other. He expressed to me his excitent and hope for our future moving forward. My sobriety, meeting attendance has been constant. Then 2 days later after meeting a friend he completely changed.. Said he was crazy to believe that we will ever work. Said I was like a witch who entraces him. I am so hurt beyond words.
I dont know about your relationship. That's between you two and the god of your understanding. I do know that it is not uncommon for folks to maintain a reasonably stable sobriety for quite long perionds, as long as everyone is playing their part correctly. Expectations as you said. Then eventually the wheels fall off, and we find people have feet of clay. And when bad things happen, we look for a solution. If we have found the new solution, we are not in danger, but so often, people in cruise mode, meetings based sobriety, turn to their old solution.
Have a read of the step three directions, not just the how to, but the why we should. The founders were very wise in steering us toward a Power that will never let us down. On that we can base a permanet and stable sobriety.
