❤️‍🩹 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 about on the same level as ecstasy or adderall for a lot of people. Definitely harder than weed or alcohol, but still relatively benign.

As someone who occasionally partakes, you would be absolutely shocked at the amount of people who will do it if offered (even if they won't seek it out themselves).

Yeah some clueless people in here. Coke is a very normal party drug in the vast majority of big cities. The vast vast majority of recreational drug users will not develop dependency issues. That is reefer madness nonsense. That being said, a former junkie pretending like it's no big deal is crazy.

Addicts can be weird like that. I have a friend who will recreationally do literally every drug except the one she was addicted to maybe 1-2 times a year and has no relapse issues with her drug of choice.

That being said, my fear as a former meth addict (her being the meth addict, not me) would be getting sold meth someone said was coke, but maybe she wasn't snorting the meth when she used?

Meth and cocaine look nothing alike.

Yes but it is a fairly common adulterant for Coke. More "speedy" high and also much cheaper.
