I’m in love with an addict!

My guy is an addict. He went to rehab for 6 months came out and got a job… His first check he bought marijuana from his barber. His drugs of choice, before rehab, were cocaine, pain killers, ecstasy, basically anything he can get high on…

We slowly started to rebuild our relationship. He told me he was only going to do marijuana. Around Oct 2015 I think he started back doing more than marijuana, because he started being distant and withdrawn from me and his family. Something is going on with his job…I’m not even sure if he still works there… I feel he is just working temp jobs.

He continues to try to convince me he is not doing drugs but the weight loss and the constant lying make me feel he is… He broke up with me because I would say something if I smelled drugs on him, however he still want to be friends…

Started off calling everyday like we were still together. Than it went to him calling every 3 days. If I asked him if he was okay he get very defensive, so we had a falling out haven’t heard from him. I don’t know what to do from here, pray he doesn’t overdose.

and Finally Remember:

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.”
– Matthew 7:7-8
