I think that one of the ironies of sites like this is that we hear so many stories that sound so much like ours, we feel less alone. Yet, at the same time, there is no rule book. We are all individuals, and so are the addicts we love. Just because something generally happens, or happens to a lot of people, doesn't mean that's how it always goes.
I don't think we can ever really know how someone else feels or felt, unless we have a healthy, honest relationship where we can trust them to tell us the truth. Outside of that, you can only be sure of your own feelings.
