My sponsee went back out and i dont think shes coming back

So i got a text from my sponsee today and she told me shes drinking again and she isnt ready to give the progran an honest try. Ive been reaching out for weeks and she finally got back to me today and thats what she told me. I messaged back that whens shes ready to give the program an honest try ill be there for her, that shes free to call me if she wants help, and i wish her all the best.

That’s the very best you can do @Ridesende .
It’s OK.
Is never feels good when they choose the addiction
But it’s their choice
Keep going strong

You did what you could do.
It’s hard, as well for you. Addiction sucks :confounded:
Keep going yourself Amanda and keep your guards up. This is not easy for you too. Come here to talk if you need us, just like you did now.
Venting always helps to get the edge out.
Hope you will find a new sponsor soon :pray:

Im sorry you are going through that. Doing good work to help others is hard, especially when they can’t do it yet.

I hope that you will hear back from her soon. And if you don’t, keep it clear for yourself that you are not at fault. Every one of us has to make our own decisions on this every day.

I wish you peace.

Had that happen to me a few times told them you got my number and theres always a seat at a meeting for them . you been sponsoring long,
