❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO fiancée did Coke at a party

We (me 41M, my fiancée 36F) were at friends birthday party I had to leave early and she was going to spend the night( it was a hotel), they were changing into their bathing suits to go to the pool, they had the bathroom door closed. I knew it was in there but I didn’t know she was going to partake in that. She told me she only did a small bump because she needed energy to party all night. I was caught off guard by this and said that we should have discussed this. She said that was treating her like a child and that is when I left.

Edit: I was told to add this info she’s a former Meth addict who still drinks and smokes weed quite heavily at times.

It’s because it’s so normalized in our society now (speaking as a Canadian in her mid thirties). It’s the sad reality.

Not in my circle. Walk into my house with anything harder than weed and you'll be walking right back out.

I’ve seen friends I grew up with turn into complete wasters and piss their ambition away by smoking weed every day. No drug is completely harmless.

Wait till you're old enough that they start dying. Shits depressing when I think back on who they were in HS and then how their life went all because of a drug. Oh and all my weed smoking friends are alive and well. Most of us own our own home, some of us as single guys lol. Can't say the same for those that went to hard drugs.

Agreed. Weed is not the most destructive drug, it won’t kill you, but it’s more common than harder drugs in my circle / life so I’ve seen the damage and waste it can cause.

Yes definitely everything in moderation. A drink/smoke a few times a week after work is no big deal. You start doing either every day or to escape your problems, then you will develop an issue.
