Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, the guy I've been seeing told me he did not want to pursue a relationship with me after over two months of talking. He did the exact same thing to me seven years ago. I fell for him twice. FML

Today, after spending 4 years without dating after an abusive relationship, and going out with who I thought was a decent guy for 6 months, I told him I have bipolar disorder and take medication for it. He responded by dumping me saying he can’t date someone who’s “crazy.” Back to putting my wall up I go. FML
Today, I got an e-mail from a guy I'd had a one night stand with. He wanted to get together to talk about it. Turns out he's in rehab and he wanted to address the biggest mistakes he'd ever made in his life. I am a on a drug addict's list of regrets. FML
Today, I got turned down by the person who has been wanting to date me for five months. FML

He’s trying to move on from the lifestyle, and sees it as a threat to recovery?

Because if you fall off the wagon, and most people do at least once in their recovery, it's a temptation for him to fall too. And vice versa. Dating another person in recovery doubles the odds that you will slip up. Plus you have to constantly watch out for both your sobrieties and essentially baby sit each other and that's an added stress

"Pursuing?" When people you meet in recovery begin stalking you, maybe you should make a policy of automatically rejecting people in recovery. Way to freak that guy out, creeper!
