[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 480298, member: 59"] It's so true that just as we think one thing is settled and we can breath, they do something else to put us right back down at the bottom. It was very selfish of him to do that to you. Why can't they just be honest, they know we are going to find out. And what is with his girlfriend. Then she can help him the next time he needs it. I am angry for you. He is so much like my difficult child, and I thought they broke the mold with her. If they put half the effort into their recovery than they do in trying to deceive us they would be so much better off. I think this tells you that his drug addiction is more serious than he admits and he just isn't willing to give it up. When my difficult child has pulled something like this I let husband handle her calls, I backed away and withdrew myself. It was too emotional for me and I just made things worse. He was able to detach more and be less confrontational but at the same time he was more assertive and he didn't let her get to him like she could get to me. It's good to be angry right now, it will help protect you. Again I am so sorry he has blown a chance once again to get help. nancy [/QUOTE]
