Question - (9 March 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 9 March 2009)
A male United States age 41-50, *LWrestler160 writes:

Hi, my beautiful wife and I have been married for 3 and a half years now. We have a 3 year old daughter. Having that said, I have been smoking marijuana for nearly 6 years habitually. When we started dating she knew of my usage but it never changed my attitude or personality. If anything just made me want to cuddle more. So, she dealt with it, I wouldn't say she approved of it. After the birth of my beautiful daughter I told her I was going to stop and be there for them. That was far from the case, I still used and often left to friends house to smoke and hang out there with friends and work on cars. Long story short with the basics. I have been arrested with possession of marijuana and have been kicked out of the house. I see my girls on a regular basis and they are not going to leave me. I love them dearly and was too blinded to realize on how lucky I am to have these wonderful girls. I have stopped using and I am currently working on making my way back into the house. I realize that this will not be overnight and I will have to be completely honest. But I was wondering what other things can I do to help get her to trust me again?

enjoimx agony auntThats awesome that you stopped using....Mary J is a pretty shitty substitute for reality after awhile. I quit and my life has been better in a few ways because of it.

But i am sure that if you just show her you care for her in all of your actions, she will take you back. Maybe try really being happy with yourself, going to counseling, smiling alot, being nice, not pressuring her too much, and just moving on with your life, she will see the positive change and seek you out.
