RUNNING AWAY

[Old Codger]

4. OK

I see exactly what you mean, but take the whole thing to what it actually means, when AA members refer to a "geographical" they are referring to running away from problems that are their own fault, not something that someone else is causing. Even though you were in fact somewhat to blame you could leave that problem behind and not take it with you. Whereas an addict is the problem in and of themselves so they are not leaving the problem behind but taking it with them... so in the case you refer to , yes that would work ok unless you end up tied up with someone new who was mostly like the one you left behind...
