This is really just for people to rant to about the people they love and care about wasting their lives because of drugs and alcohol. I know when my boyfriend was smoking constantly that i wished i had someone to spill my guts to about it.

My boyfriend and I have been together since February of 2008. After two years of us being together he starting smoking pot with his best friend. It got so bad to the point where he wouldn't come over to my house because he was waiting to pick up some more weed. He wouldn't quit even when i told him the first time he smoked i didn't want him to. He continued to lie to me about it all the time. We were constantly fighting. He spent probably about 3,000 dollars on pot for the year that he was smoking and yet he hadn't taken me out to the movies or dinner in over a year. He never got his drivers license, he got kicked out of the house he was living in and had to move in with me. I allowed him to manipulate me to the point where i was giving him money to buy weed and even driving him to go get it! I finally told him i had had enough and that I wasn't going to give him money or drive him anywhere. I was tired of wasting our relationship and that if he didn't stop me and him wouldn't be together.

Its been a month now and things are getting better, he has a job and his license. Its hard for me not to resent him for all that he has done, but as long as things stay the way they are i will get over it. All we need is time :)

Well good for you, girl! That's what it takes to teach a man, but sadly sometimes we girls have to get even more mean with them. I'm glad you got it all straightened out! He sounds like a keeper if he was willing to change for you. =D
