He wonders how he got into Al-anon. None of his family or friends was alcoholic except his grandfather who he was never around much. He did marry a woman who became an alcoholic but he never remembers being bothered by her drinking. He is not sure he even knew what alcoholism was. He is a people pleaser. In fact he has had more problems with his wife's sobriety than with her active alcoholism because he got to play the role of victim. There was never a moment in his life where he was disturbed by someone else's drinking. But he knows to his core that this is where he belongs because he was very spiritually sick.
