[QUOTE="Tiredof33, post: 508093, member: 13558"] Sadly, if you ask (plead) for girlfriend to leave him alone and let him try to get help, it seems to only make them band together tighter! In their little addicted minds it is us against them. It seems to romanticize the relationship into way more than it really is. Sometimes I think it is just one more way to rebel against us and they know it bugs us! My difficult child used to brag about being able to break into anything. I had the proof, he could break into MY home regardless of the locks I installed. When he got into trouble it gave him BRAGGING RIGHTS - pathetic! I did not raise my son that way. When the difficult children start using, at whatever age, that is where they stay emotionally and mentally (until they start recovery) and both of our difficult children started using at an early age. I could tell a huge difference in my son the previous year that he was not using. This is such a heartbreaking time for you - he is at crossroads in his life - I pray for you that he (and all of ours) will see that the current path is only taking them in circles. [/QUOTE]
