Please bare with me... this is kind of a long story. I need to know everyone's honest opinion here, so please help me if you can. My husband was a recovering addict when i married him. He struggled with addiction all through-out our relationship. He's done it ALL... but his drug of choice was pain killers. Anyhow, i always knew when he was "using" because he would have major mood swings, as well as not be able to acheive orgasm. And money would become a prevalint issue. Also... he doesn't care about much else when he is on them... even me. Anyhow, he was clean for 5 months when i married him and i thought it was behind us. So we married Nov 1st. Soon after i noticed the mood swings and other things... plus got a bad feeling. So i asked him a few times, and of course he denied it. Well... I've come to find out last week through a mutual friend... that he had gone to both him(the friend) and another elderly man we know in search of pain killers supposedly for a bad shoulder. (by the way... i never even heard about his shoulder hurting) Then I found out that while visiting new york on his own(we just moved to california) he tried to get a friend of mine to help him get pills... unfortunately my friend never told me until this other stuff came out. So i confronted him about all of it and he pretty much denied it. As for the friend and the elderly man he claims he was looking for asprin or excedrine. (yeah right) and as for the friend in NY, he first claimed that he bought 6 while there, took 3 and through 3 in the woods out of guilt (to this I also say"yeah right!") So I got on a plain and left to go back home to NY. Tonight we spoke and he said he wanted to tell me the whole "truth". He says that he began taking the pills to last longer in bed (we had been having a problem with that) and that he was ONLY taking them when he knew we were having sex. Now my logic tells me that this would mean him having some kind of control over something that he can not keep control over!!! To me it just isn't possible. I don't know... i feel like I am beginning to doubt myself and i am going a little crazy. Does anyone have some insight and an honest opinion here. I just didn't think it was posible for someone who blew thousands on pills... to now take then in a regulatory way. Am I correct here in thinking this??? Another tell-tale sign to me is that i left to go home to my mothers and he does not even seem to show much emotion about it. Isn't that pretty telling? What do you all think???
