Cause its never going to be the same. You have to face reality about that. You have been the best friend you can be to her. You have gone beyond what most would...even her family. And you are at risk for losing your husband...cause you do realize he eventually is going to get sick of it too, right? So now she is not only screwing up her life...but also taking you down with her. THIS IS NO FRIEND!! Friendship is not a one way street. It's obvious she doesnt want help. My advice would be to break the ties...go on with your life...know that you did everything you could...and start involving yourself with people that actually care about your friendship. There are too many good people in this world!! |
Thank you. Yes, she always throws up how she is bettering her life, blah blah, but I told her she has no alternative BUT to stay in rehab, she lost her home! She could be there, or in one of their apts for a while, because there are over 700 people on the waiting list for housing assistance in our parish.
That is one positive.
I tell her all the time a day clean in rehab is nothing. A day clean on her own is what counts.
