Hi DRE80
thanks for your messages.
you are right, we are as addicted to them as they are to the drug,
its because emotionally they leave us wanting more,
we catch a glimpse of the love they can give, and we are hooked,
then more often than not they wont deliver it, but because we have convinced ourselves it is there and worth fighting for we because obsessed with it.
I can see how I am doing this myself, and just not wanting to let go.
and underneath all the problems that loving person is there, and when they are free from drugs they can see it so clearly themselves, but whilst the drugs are there no amount of crying or trying to get them to see will ever work, and that’s what is so frustrating.
my girlfriend is the most contradictory person ever,
constantly saying one thing and then doing the opposite etc, so its hard to ever know where you stand with that.
but I know its drugs that make her go against herself and say and do so many contradictory things.
you really are better off forgetting about your ex, count yourself lucky it was only 6 months, hopefully you meet someone nice who treats you with respect and that would certainly help forget about him.
maybe that would help all of us, but I think the longer you are with someone the more there is to get over and to forget, so even if I met someone else I think my past with my current girlfriend could become a burden on any future partner.
