Nothing works there are things like this that cause you torture. You leave open to receive texts like this that are most likely just meant to hurt you.

He will be back to his old tricks soon, and then she and her family will be the ones hurting. It's a tragic cycle.

Hugs to you. NO CONTACT. Time does heal, it just takes a lot of it sometime.

The original poster has not been on this site in over three years - so I'm thinking this issue is probably in her rear-view mirror.

Nothing works because you still are in a relationship with him. Ex him out of your life. Until that happens you will have more of the same

I'm sorry but I have to put the question out there. Why are you allowing this man to continue to contact you and hurt you like this?

I'm sorry, I just read a bit more through the thread and saw you cut off contact. Good for you! I know it's hard. I've been there myself. Just keep thinking about what you need and doing things that are good to you.

In my opinion he is texting what he wants you to hear is which is"I am clean, I am happy, and I think you'll be better off without me don't be mad I wish you well"
But what I really think it means is..."none of the new people I hang around with know my past so I can get away with using just a little bit and when she finds out I am in a downward spiral and throws me out, I need to make sure you'll be sitting their waiting for me."

Move on, the guy is a bum.
