Would you stay?

Question

Would you stay with someone if they admitted to you that they were a past user of meth (but now clean) and abused their last girlfriend, but is actively in counseling, on medication, is clean, and trying to better their life?

Answer

Me, now, with a child- no. Me without a child- yes. I’d just take it slow.

Answer

Depends on your life situation

Answer

Yes. They're trying to be better, they're trying to grow as an individual. No reason to leave them for that.

Answer

There is a man in the UK that has seen thousands of abusers in his clinic, he wrote a book (How He Gets Into Her Head by Don Hennessy). He is an expert. And he has said he hasn’t met a single abuser that has changed. I’d be willing to bet what your man has copped to is a fraction of the actual abuse he inflicted on his victim, and is only playing the “open book” card to garner trust (oh, he was “honest” about his past!) and to test the waters to see if you will tolerate abuse or if you’ll use your brain and run the fuck away and FAST.

Answer

Why bother with all that mess when there are plenty of nice guys without baggage and issues?

Answer

I'd wish them all the very best with their recovery but I could not be with someone who had abused another. Even if the meth could be used as absolution from the abuse; they are still responsible for abusing a substance that could make them that way. I can't make peace with that. There's no legitimate excuse for abusing another.
