Well, if this is true—then you are truly a noble soul on a righteous path… I only ask because I know a little something about addiction. Sometimes our past reaches out in ways which aren’t meant to do us harm. Sometimes people look to light (you beyond the darkness) to lead. Sometimes the only true salvation comes from those whom have shared in similar patches of darkness. I do not know the extent of the theft—nor the lies; I do know the heart of the addict tends to be intense beyond reason. For whatever reason, I’m saying that perhaps you should hear him out in a safe setting—his individual life may not matter, but the ripples of those affected by him could benefit from you… I’m just saying, that your post seemed hopeless and I can tell from your past—that hopelessness is not your intent. I wish you nothing but the very best sir. Goodnight.
He and his girlfriend (both old roommates of mine at one point) have stolen from me, lied to me, and been deceitful in every way. I know that neither of them are living sober lives because I know people who still keep contact with them. And even if they were, I still do not want them in my life anymore. The damage has been done.
