Comparing my insides to someone else's outsides is grossly unfair to me and the other person.

As a long-term recovering meth addict myself, I can guarantee you that while I was not in recovery, I could have had someone crapping golden eggs into my hands, and I still would not have been happy. I had no viable solution for my miserable life.

Eventually all of it will not be enough for him. He's still got that gaping hole inside that the cold winds blow through. It's just been temporarily quieted through his enablers. An addict without recovery is a bottomless pit of demands.
