Guy I dated has cocaine habit

Hi, I've been quite anxious over all this. I met a guy I really liked and started seeing him, everything was pretty great. I knew he had fond drugs before. But he told me he had stopped. Well - not so much. Pretty soon I started to question this as his behavior and moods seemed to be changing a lot. I probably knew but wanted to believe him. In a few weeks he told me he was about to get coke, because of he was upset over a tragedy in the family. I tried to take him out of it - of course in vain. So he got coke and got drunk too using it. Ok then. Well he did the same in just two days time. He then admitted to me that he has a coke habit. Which I now find quite surprising after having read threads here about users, how they are liars and in denial etc. his behavior was so strange but I now realize it was all because of coke... and he prob did it a lot more than "just" weekends. He said he can't go without coke. He also drinks way too much. He was acting all paranoid while - I think he must have been then - on it. And blaming me for sleeping with pretty much everyone I met, for example. He also threatened to kill himself. That really scared me. He also said that night that our relationship or what should I call it, wasn't going to work (afterwards I knew, because of his habit/addiction). After finding out he was still 'ok' and alive the next day, I pretty much stopped being intouch with him. I can't help still being worried about him. But what can I do - what should I do?? Tell his family? I think they already know... but now he's also seeing someone else. And I'm wondering if I should warn this girl he's dating now, or not. It's not my business really anymore. But I've since found out he not only gets paranoid but also aggressive while on coke. Should I just let this girl find out for herself? What if he's not 'honest' (yes right, he lied about it all to begin with, but I'm in a weird way about grateful he admitted it to me, and it hurts/hurt a lot, but in the long run would have been a disaster) like he was to means denies everything and this girl believes him and possibly gets hurt - more ways than one in worst scenario? I've kept my mouth shut for now. What would you do if anything?
Bloody men...

I just couldn't do it. It fucking hurts. Even knowing all of this. I told him from the beginning is never do that.
I suppose this is the best he could do for me then.

Not your responsibility nor is the new girlfriend.
Put it behind you. Coke users are selfish arrogant bastards ime. Not that I am one. It's the work of the devil.
And I love this post earlier

You ain’t responsible for this dickwad. Get rid.

Fucking cocaine, man. You may as well grind up orphan bones and snort them. It’s about as ethical.

It's such an ugly habit op get away from it

Involvedwaddict · 17/06/2018 04:57

Yea loved all that too...!
All of it really helps.
I'm really - I don't even know what the fuck I am anymore - surprised I'm not surprised just taken back he's blocked me as we haven't been in touch in at least two weeks now. Why block me now...?
But I'm also a bit relieved as I could not do it and he couldn't either until now I know he thought it was for the best (he said).
I don't get it but then I maybe didn't get many things he did before either

He or his new partner isn't your responsibility or any of your business anymore.

I'd really consider getting yourself some counselling as it's not healthy to still be this invested in a past relationship, step away from checking on him on social media/ how he is currently etc and literally do anything to pre occupy yourself and finally move on.

Involvedwaddict · 17/06/2018 19:53

Yes, you're so right, I know...!
I haven't checked on him on social media in well over a week now (and now I'm not able antways), but I noticed he's blocked me I think going through my messages last night and seeing I don't see his name anymore where it should be it's just FB user. I had a really nice day and night yesterday out with friends and it put things into perspective. I think. But. How immature if him! I've always hated the unfriending/blocking games don't do that ever myself.
Yes prob the only good thing that's come out of this is that I've realized how messed up I still am and sadly it's almost impossible for me to have a healthy relationship with anyone as things are now. I'm really tired and fed up with myself SadSad

And... he's back...! Well, he's trying to be in my life again. I've been over it for I don't know at least two weeks now. I so knew he'd do this

I don't think I can let that happen. And no I can't be with him unless he'd quit using and doubt that, was thinking maybe mates. But I guess it's too much drama and stress for me. Still struggling a bit with that one though.
