[QUOTE="KrisfromNJ, post: 629487, member: 17953"] Wow.. I just checked and thank you all for your kind words and encouragement. I wish everyone the best and that all our difficult child's get to the right path. I went to difficult child's new place, it's not a palace and I made sure to reserve my opinions and not show judgement. More like a dorm that he has a roommate with. But it was clean and definitely beats the street. I took difficult child out for lunch, we made small talk and I pretty much just listened, of course I bit my tongue when needed. (Trust me it was hard). Someone on my original thread said there was a possibility that he was taking drugs when I first posted and he said "I don't want to lie to you no more" during lunch. My heart sank and I was waiting for the back to reality and thinking, "here it comes" this was a dream of some sorts. He said, remember when I broke in the house and stole all your jewelry and computers, well it was because I got mixed up with some guys and we started taking drugs and I got hooked on them. All I cared about was the drugs. I am sorry, I am seeing someone for it and I only want you someday to be able to forgive me. I pawned your stuff for drug money and to party and it's taken me this long to clean myself up. Well that conversation ended with me finally getting some closure on a lot of reasons things happened around the house. He asked me for clothes if I could and he pay me back for them in his first check. He needed to have them for a job interview. I usually would break and do it right away but I said, give me a couple days to think this over but I want your mentor to call me first to make sure your telling the truth before I help you out again. I hope that was the right thug to do, it felt hard but at the same time right. Well I went home and didn't make it five feet without balling my eyes out. Of course SO said he would believe it when he sees it after I told him. Time will tell but I might be starting to heal. Good luck to us all, this might finally be a turning point and I am trying to stay grounded so I don't get my hopes totally up and end in a let down. Sent using ConductDisorders mobile app [/QUOTE]
