Oh, I meant to say...the guy underneath the addiction, family, depression, etc... is a really good guy. But, it was hard work for him to be with me. His parents were always there pushing him to explore the "fun" side of life. They blamed me for labeling him an addict. Told him he never had fun with me. Told him I put ideas into his head. Told him he needed to relax and party and have fun with his old friends (alcoholic friends). Very antiquated thinking.
Their way was always easier. Much easier. He doesn't like to work hard. His family's way is much, much easier. Don't acknowledge problems, just surf on top. When the big waves hit, blame someone else.
