Hi my name is Becky,I have been with my boyfriend for 9 years and have 2 kids with him. I am so confused because I love my boyfriend with all my heart but he has done me so wrong in the past. He's been on drugs on and off the whole 9 years. From cocaine to pain pills.

For the past couple months he was doing really good though not disappearing at night, getting rid of his low life drug friends and showing me he was really trying. Which made me want to set a wedding date for next May, which made me truly happy.

Well that was then, now we're right back to the old ways. He is addicted to pain pills now and denies it (of course). Last weekend, and including tonight, he has been taking off at night in search of pills and not coming back until 2 o'clock a.m. And not only that tonight before he disappears he calls a guy he use to hang with a year ago (who was popping pain pills) and leaves.

In the past he would always disappear with this guy for hours or even days. It hurts me so bad because I have already been through this with him over and over. Now I dont know if I should marry him or not. When he is not eating pain pills he is the best person I know, but when he is he treats me like crap. Should I marry him or not? Or should I just leave the relationship now?

lisa_01 agony auntGive him this choice, if he does not stop taking drugs you are going to leave, because this is not fair on you, its his addiction and the only way he will ever stop is if goes to a councilor for help himself. Giving him the choice to pick between you and the drugs will sure make him wake up to himself. Im sure his really nice and all when his not on the drugs but when he is do you really want to marry a man that is going to be taking drugs around your children?
