How can I let go of someone who all I have shown is love and kindness, and now wants nothing to to with me b/cause he says its time to buck down and start his recovery? He hasn't used in 10 months, and he is petrified of kindness, affection, of emotion, of love and especially of being off probation in three months...he' wont have to be held accountable anymore. Help me understand why he wont help me help him.
Sounds to me like he is starting the stinkin' thinkin' knowing that in three months he will be free to use again and he knows you will try to get in the way between him and his drugs.
That sucks, but it helps me understand addicts and their frame of mind a little better. I don't want to be selfish about this...I really think I love this guy!
