Well here goes. I met a women a few weeks ago in one of my ACOA meetings. We have been out on a few dates, four, to be exact and we had an enjoyable time on all of them. The major problem that I'm having is this: I would like to tell her how I feel about her but I'm not sure if I should at this point.
This is compounded by the fact that both of us just got out of long term relationships, 3 months ago for me and about the same for her. We are both ACOA's and are both in recovery, she longer than I. She is also a recovering alcoholic, sober for 4 years now. There is also the fact that I met her at one of my meetings and it was/is not my intention to use meetings as a sort of dating pool.
The above aside, she is really fun to be with, intelligent, attractive and has goals. She is a grad student here on campus in a program that will take up a lot of her time once classes start in September.
I'm not sure whether a relationship between us would grow into anything, but, such is life.
She is leaving for a couple of weeks to visit her parents and we are getting together tomorrow or the next day for dinner and or a movie.
My question is this: Do I say something now or wait until she get's back? Or should I run like hell becasue of the meeting thing? The grind is there are many things I like about her and I hate to blow a chance.
