... If Mondays blue, Tuesdays grey and wednesday too i don't care about thursday(?) cuause Friday i'm in love...
Just heard that on my Ipod, put is in a good mood for the day.
Went to see " The Streets" last night at a local nightclub. It was a top night apart from one thing. Me and one of my mates have been kinda seeing each other, i like her, she' sound in every way. The other night she phoned my crying asking me to go down to her house. I went down and she told me that her mum had found a bit of foil in her room. As the night wore on she admitted to me that she had a habit. I told her a bit of my experience and gave her advice n that..... She didn't listen! Last night before the gig she was out of it, she went n scored before we left......
I'm feeling rather s***( and very very hungover) as it was on my mind all night. When we were in a pub later i've said something and just left, something really snidey, but i can't remember as i was steaming!! I don't know what i said to her but when she phoned i just hung up her. She deserves better than that!But, i can't be seeing someone who is taking smack, can I? I'm just off it myself!! What do i do people?? Advice needed
hope everyone had a good Friday!!!!!!!!!
PS. Speaking to Kieran from "The View" last night, what a sound guy. If anyone is feeling down today google "the view" and listen to "face for the radio" on their myspace page,fine tune, it'll brighten up your day....Kev
Alright..Kev mate ...hope ya enjoyed Mike Skinner&Co.....as im a Streets fan myself...do you like Jamie.T?
Anyhow back to yer dilemma....in the end of it ..depends on how much ya relly like this girl...coz Kev.ya know yer goin near the flame goin out with an addict...you know mate ya could be back on it in a whisper...so its the love/sober battle that you would have if you went out regular...thats up to you in the end.Me personally would see how things go ...you know what can lie behind an addict...or do you?but Kev it aint no fun goin out with an addict as all the ladies ..as it is usually woman..on this board will testify.
Sorry i cant give ya any nuggets of wisdom..but as an ex addict i can understand how f***ed up it is....ya meet a sound girl...nice one..but uh..oh..shes on the gear...struggling yerself...very hard call to make.Take care Kev...and let us know how things get on...best of luck..Davey

Hiya, I gotta say, the words "don't touch" and "barge pole" come to mind. Get out now before you get in too deep. Yeah she might be a lovely girl, but you don't need that s*** in your life right now. If you start seeing her, then don't kid yourself, you're on a one way ticket back to wear you came from. Do not pass Go, do not collect 200. Leave well alone - you can't help her, and she definately is about as much use to you as a chocolate teapot. Hey - plenty more fish in sea - don't worry, I ain't gonna embarress us both by quoting the rest of that song LOL!

Kev...I agree with Diff...most definatly stay away although it may be hard, it will be harder when you find yourself with a habit again.

If I'd known what I know now when I first met my guy...first was told "he's an ex-smackhead"...I'd have walked away...the whole seeing how it goes thing...you're in danger then of falling in love...then what?! Loving an addict ain't easy...if you got the choice...don't fall!

Dont worry about her feelings--dont mean to be too harsh but you know the lifestyle-youve been there and dont want to go there again-if this early in the "relationship" its already this roughits not gonna get better--tell her youll be a friend to her when she wants to hang out not high--you know in your gut whats the best thing-pretend thats your addiction calling--i would hang up on it too-keep up your strength good luck my friend-keep us posted
Alright...Kev...i know yer a Dundee Utd man ...so if you and me are gonna get on am gonna admit im a Hoops man...which is hard ....and dont be telling me yer surname is Boyle or Doherty...coz i ken you Dfolk.Funny all the ladies said stay well away??and me said go on see what happens.I know its a tough one but being off the gear is kinda like being on the rebound from a relationship...if ya get me .Think bout You mate ..coz thats it at the end ...oh!...also The S.F.L......Davey
Cheers for the replies all, greatly appreciated!! I think i already knew the answer to the question... i just had to read it! When i finished work last night i phoned my sis in the house to let her know i was going for a pint and she told me the girl was there waiting for me... Me, being the sh*tebag that i am couldn't go up and speak to her as i don't know what i said to her the previous night. I ended up getting pure steaming and getting full of it.
I'm so angry at myself for doing it( or is it feeling sorry for myself lol) There's me thinking i had this addiction under wraps too! BUT, it's not the end of the world, i'm in the house right now, i've got money and getting drunk or high is not even coming into my head. I'm babysitting tonight and i'm just gonna chill tomorrow. I'm gonna stay off the drink as that is going to lead me into a lot of trouble. Waht is it they say?? one day at a time...Hope all have a good day, Kev

I agree Danger, Danger red flags are out!. Knowing what know i could not get involed "relationship" wise with any kind of addict possibly even a recovering one. It's your call go in with eyes open.
I love these song lyrics, makes me think of your situation.
"""I wasn't alone it was a night after a show
space was full
energy was consumed
there was a girl emphasis on the "L"
she was noticin the detail as well
and the two of us found something with each other
previously undiscovered
hell is full of lovers:"""""
You should know just being her friend chances are it will make things COMPLEX for you..

Afternoon all, just thought i'd update you. Clare came up last night and we didn't say much the whole night, she ended up going down to her house. I told her today that i couldn't see her anymore. that just being around her brings back old feelings.. She was ok about it and apologised for putting it in my face. She said she genuinly wants to get clean, i hope so, i really do, but, well you all know what i mean. I told her that i'm just a phone call if she needs someone to talk to who understands. In a way i'm gutted i done it but it was the right thing to do.
PS. never been so insulted in all my life... a dundee united fan??? c'mon Davey!!! lol

TROLLIED? Oh boy Kev, that's a new one on me. We say hammered.
Ya did right in how ya handled your lady friend, Kev..........good lookout.....really good cause like Davey said:
"One toot can bring the house down"
All good things for Miss Clare too.......we'll be thinking of her......and like Davey said there's the future........I kind of see why in Narcotics Anonymous they caution to not have a relationship for at least a year.......with someone straight or otherwise.
FEELINGS..........do we hate to feel or what? Feel, cover it up, numb it, hide it, and on and on........we got enough going on during early recovery without all that mess getting in the way.......ya did good, Kev.
