Welcome to SR!! As you can see, we do have a little fun sometimes
As far as hope, I'm a recovering addict and I think a person can ALWAYS have hope. However, I also believe in preparing for the worst, hoping/praying for the best.
As was mentioned above, go by his actions, not his words. We addicts are the best at telling you what you want to hear, just to keep stringing you along. If he truly wants recovery, it will show in his actions...he won't HAVE to say anything.
I hope you keep reading and posting here. Life is truly like being on a rollercoaster when you love an addict, but there are many people here who have been on the ride for a while and can share some ES&H (experience, strength & hope)...oh and a lot of humor
Hugs and prayers!
Amy
