Question by Laura: I am dating a guy who is a cocaine addict but has been trying to quit for about six months.?
He has been through two thirty days with me and then falls of the wagon. I adore him and don’t know what my help or approch should be. I am not sure if other problems exit in the relationship because I am so focused in keeping him sober. I don’t know how to separate what is truly him and what is the drug. The lies and the manipulations seem inate but then again I keep seeing a beautiful incredible and fasinating guy inside. I am torn and confused about the intensity of this relationship. Can’t seem to get comfort because I am always thinking whether he will make it through the day. Any advice?
