Well, that was a stressful night. And just off the top, no I did not relapse (well my girlfriend gave me some weed but that was after getting kicked out, who cares about weed?). So sober living has poor person restriction, if we're behind on rent, we're only supposed to leave the house for work and meetings. I followed these rules for a while, but they made my life very empty. I did this until I met my current girlfriend 7 months ago. Ever since then, I've been going to work and spending time with my girlfriend afterwards. And my girlfriend doesn't do any drugs other than weed, also a recovering alcoholic.

Well for the crime of spending time with my girlfriend after work, I got kicked out. Fortunately, my girlfriend has no problem with me moving in for a few weeks until I find my place with my two sober friends. They know how broke I am and want to get a place with the three of us so they can help me out some. I can at least contribute some. And with not having to worry about work the next couple weeks will help me save up that. Also having freedom, not having the costs associated with sober living will be so great.

I appreciate it. Yeah, I mean a lot of these places value structure over anything. It is what it is
