I am sick with myself that have been foolish enough to continue to trust anything that an addict says. When he opens his mouth I never know whether he is blowing smoke up my ass or telling the truth. I am too smart to put myself in a situation where I have to question where I stand with someone.
OK. You fell for it. You paid for it. It'll sting for a bit, but maybe that's not such a bad thing. Remember how that feels, that sting, that betrayal of your trust yet again...
...and then get off the dirt, brush yourself off, and don't give yourself permission to fall for it again.
He's an addict. This is what addicts do.
