Happy Friday folks!

Got my niece coming up tomorrow night to celebrate her graduation and have a drink.

Kinda dreading it because my wife likes a blowout every now and again and that usually involves a bit of coke. I had a disgustingly bad coke habit up until March 12th of 2021, when I came clean to her and with her support kicked that habit to fuck.

That’s my issue though, and just because I had problems doesn’t mean she isn’t entitled to a big blowout once or twice a year, but she gets all weird as if she’s tempting me or being a bad wife or some shit.

Try your best to have a good time in spite of it? Not ideal like, but I know the type of person who doesn't want their personal decisions to impact anyone else having a good time.

If you compared it to drinking or green, I would probably not if my friend told me he had packed it in. Half of doing something like that with someone is the fun of doing it together.

Cheers mate - and that’s exactly my mindset tae tbh. She deserves a blow out every once in a while and shouldn’t have to stress just because i let it get the better of me.

If it was all the time, then aye I’d be concerned, and I’d be a bit of a hypocrite even then, considering.

I’m looking forward to it!

Personally, if I had quit something terrible and addictive (big props to you), I would be pretty upset if my wife continued to do said terrible, addictive thing.

Oh shes done it maybe 3 or 4 times since I quit. That was her biggest concern also - the impact it would have on me, so we’ve discussed it loads and I assured her I’m completely fine with it.

I’ve experienced lows I’d never have even considered due to that shit, so there’s no chance of me slipping back into that lifestyle at all thankfully.
