Genesis 2:18 – “…It is not good for man to be alone; I will make him a helper corresponding to him.”
Whatever your marital status, the program encourages you to work hard on your primary love relationship. This is not always easy, as we may know from our experiences. Sometimes, it is the stress of a relationship that pushes us into addiction. Returning to a bad relationship in recovery can increase our risk of relapse. Or, it may be that in our addiction we have hurt those closest to us. In that case, we owe amends to our partners. However, regardless of the situation, as the verse tells us, we are better off not being alone. We need our partners to help us in our recovery, and they need us to be the best possible people we can be in recovery.
