A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

hi, I'm new to this and ive never asked for help on a website before but I'm desperate for advice. its a bit long, so please bear with me.

tonight I was out with my best friend, while we were driving we passed my boyfriend's apartment. I decide to stop because I feel bad for not hanging out with him that night, plus he supposedly wasnt feeling well, so I tell my friend I'm gonna run in and say hi.

all of a sudden I see two guys walking, or stumbling, out of his apartment obviously high! I'm furious because he knows how I feel about drugs, (my sister had a bad history with drugs so I cannot stand them,) and he had promised me he would stop.

anger pours over me because I know he had been lying to me! I march upstairs and open the door myself to find my boyfriend along with another girl and guy getting high. he freaks out and tries to push me out but I cant control myself so I start yelling and stuff and his friends start yelling at me but he doesn't even defend me he gets mad at me, tells me to leave, I'm left outside crying and he doesn't even come out to apologize or anything.

this should be the last straw because he has done stuff like this before, but I love him so much. we've been together for almost four years and I don't know what to do. hes my everything and we have been through so much together, how can I just let it all go? I don't even know if I have the strength to cut him out of my life.

Do as you wish.

However, some drugs are good & other drugs are bad. Good and evil are constructs of the sentient mind. So, the distinction between the two are relative to the perception available to the viewers position in reality.

Do as you wish, but don't use the drugs as an excuse for your behavior, your choices.

Why are you so worried about someone else getting high? What business is it of yours what entheogens others imbibe religiously. It is non of your business if it does not affect you.

Now, if the substance being used by your supposed significant other whom you evidently wish to leave. Is in fact disruptive to the homeostasis of the human body, bad for the human system. Then yes, encourage the fool of natural selection to go another path, but most likely know that it is you who are the fool. Arrogant in approach to the holy sacrament you are personally ignorant of while those nearby are evidently not.

My advice would be to find out what drugs he is using...then research them.

the website erowid would be useful to you.

The government wants to test me when I pee because of stupid people like yourself.

You represent the masses of drooling brain dead sheeple who are pulled to and throw by the puppet masters in order to fulfill their dreams at the expense of innocents while you sleep.

Oh, NO! someone is getting high! They are finding peace of mind while trapped in the matrix, those terrorists must be stopped.

Didnt they know getting high was a crime!

A male reader, CaringGuy United Kingdom +, writes (26 June 2010):

Ask yourself this. Instead of it just being him on drugs, imagine that he spikes you drink, or pushes you to take them. Imagine, worse still, that you stay with him and he dies. Or that you have kids and he dies. Or that when he's high he cheats. Or that when you have kids he hurts them when high. See what I'm saying? You don't think you have the strength, but I think since you stood up to him once and had a go at him, you can do it again. Why settle for a man who will just drag you into a seedy world of lies and drugs? Why risk bringing any family into the world with a man like this? Don't allow yourself to be treated this way by a man who is so worthless and uncaring. You'll just end up bitter, angry and lonely. End it, cut all contact.
