G-
Glad you posted back. Was beginning to worry, but I'm so glad it's okay. Take your time.
Ran into "that guy" again today. Actually, he was riding his bike around my parking lot today when I get home. Not a coincidence: there's 30 buildings at my clomplex, and he lives way on the other side.
Anyway, I knew that if I wanted it over, I knew I had to make it clear to him that I couldn't see him anymore. However, 5 days have passed since I've seen him, and so I had started to take the situation more lightly.
I tried telling him I couldn't see him anymore: I told him I couldn't be around him because of my drinking, and if I was with him I'd just drink. He then told me he wouldn't let me, and we didn't have to drink together. Anyway, I let the conversation to go way too long partly because I want to give him the benefit of the doubt: believe he's a good guy, and then because I was afraid to handle it wrong.
Well, he wants me to call him tomorrow. I REALLY don't want to, but now I'm scared not to! I'm already letting him have power over me. AAAH. I'm thinking though it may be easier to have the courage and be straight with him on the phone.
Pray for me.Hugs,
Arrianna
