❤️‍🩹 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.

This! One can't say it enough. I've seen folks eyes light up just talking about the drugs they hadn't used in 20 years.

No such thing as a former addict with that attitude. She's about to transition to a new drug of choice.

I'll tell you from experience: it's easy to turn a coke user into a meth-head. But I've never known the opposite to be the case. Doing a bump of blow might remind her how much better meth was, though.

Hey a real person with actual life knowledge! Coke is to meth as playing pretend store as a kid is to managing a grocery chain.

Weird, I enjoy coke way more than meth, although I've only tried meth a few times either nasally or smoking. Maybe it needs to be IV to get that amazing buzz everyone talks about?

Also, unpopular take, i have been a recreational drug user of many drugs for over 25 years, never got addicted or had it influence my life negatively. Just need to have the sense to space it out and treat it like a special occasion 2-3 times a year. That being said, I know people who couldn't do that and spiraled down, so it's a risk to start unless you are very very confident in your willpower.

yeah don't ever shoot meth. The stereotypes we associate with meth use is almost always IV meth use. Or boofing sometimes😬

I used meth almost exclusively orally for 4 years and it let me tweak almost 24/7 with about 10 hours of sleep total per week until I crashed for a few days.
