I just want to ask if anyone has ever felt paranoid like this. Please note schizophrenia doesn't run in the family, and I've never been one to believe in conspiracies, but this won't get out of my head.
I'm in recovery, as is my wife... AA. This guy shows up that I end up hitting it off with, thinking he'd be a great friend. He says he's here temporarily from Atlanta taking care of his father, where he has no phone signal, so I only hear from him when he calls. I live in Birmingham, a biiiig place with lots and lots of meetings. I was talking to my wife, and she says they talked awhile at her homegroup. Funny, he shows up at my group and soley befriends me, and my wife's group and befriends her. So a couple of nights ago he tells me about this huge supplement business he was running, making real loot, and they get popped for dosing the supps with sildenafil. Wow, right up my alley. We could finish each other's sentences. So this afternoon my wife goes to the gym with her son in my car. About 20 minutes later I get a text that he's going to the gym. Ok, I wonder what gym he goes to? My wife comes home and says "Oh, I saw your friend at the gym... we talked for awhile." My gym is not a chain. It's a local gym that requires a 6 month minimum membership. He's only supposed to be here about a month, but he doesn't go to a chain gym or a month by month, he goes to the one I go to. Remember, I live in birmingham.... It's not New York, but it isn't small.
This has all happened in a space of about 10 days or so. I'm getting freaked out. So what do you think, Coincidence? or Not?
