I'm afraid he is nowhere near done, bookreader. He has definitely not hit bottom and he is doing exactly the same thing all of our addicts have done....manipulating you! Don't fall for it. You HAVE to protect yourself. Unfortunately, until he is ready and he hits his bottom, he will continue to lie and manipulate because that's what addicts do. I know it's hard....but you have to let him go, in some respects, and accept that you have zero control over it. Absolutely none! We all thought at one time or another "but my addict is different or my situation is different". I'm afraid not. They all eventually follow pretty much the same path. Start your own program sooner than later. It's the only way you will survive this with your sanity intact. We are here for you!
