Al-Anon info requested [View all]

I'm sure some of you have been to Al-Anon. What is it about?

My girlfriend is supporting me in my recovery and has been attending meetings with me. Open and closed meetings. She and I would both like to know if she should be going to Al-Anon meetings or is it okay for her to go to meetings with me.

She's very good at detecting my BS so I really don't think she has anything to learn where that's concerned. She also says she gets a lot out of hearing it straight from the people who share at my meetings. I have a great group and they apparently have no problem having her there.

Anything you could share on this subject would be helpful.
