Push It Like You Push Your Girlfriend
re: NA girl/her dad

I get where that guy is coming from telling the dad, but it's still a pretty lovely thing to do. I don't doubt he had good intentions (hey, just thought you should know), but going into that program at a young age is a pretty hard thing in the first place. Am I an addict? Can I stay clean? What if someone finds out I have a problem? During the past five years I've seen celebrities, people I've known from before, people whos families I know etc in meetings, and honestly while most of their families more than likely already know, the last thing I'd ever do is "out" them like that. poo poo's rough enough to deal with at times anyway, maybe there's a good reason for not coming out with it? Though to be fair, dad seems like a cool dude and a supportive guy.

Has anyone else met a straight edge who wasn't an insufferable twat?

Only if recovering addicts count. But really it's one of those things where the people living that lifestyle who aren't insufferable never enter your radar because they don't feel the need to get up in your face with it constantly.
