Crack

Ok, so I moved on from my BF a while ago and thought maybe he was not smoking crack anymore. But, he did the other day.  The only reason I know was because he wanted me to come by and stay with him because he was all spaced out.  I didn't go nor would I ever bring our baby around that ****.  The problem I have is that he tells me he has no problem because he only smokes it  every now and then - one to two times every 4-5 weeks, but that was only because he didn't know where to get it.  It there a such thing as only being able to smoke crack every now and then?  Is that possible?  My problem is that when I ask him to give me 100 dollars for that baby he doesn't want to do it and doesn't sometimes but yet the other day he spent 100 on crack.  He hasn't seen the baby in a long time and i haven't been to see him either.  Is he a loss cause?

I know he feels bad when he does it cause he calls me and tells me he feels bad.  I have done it to before I had my children and i didn't like it because it made me feel like **** afterwards.  I was more of a coke user in my young days.  I really liked that so I don't want to be around any thing that has coke in it nothing.  I can only do what I can.  He just won't listen sometimes or he will.  he will go weeks with out doing it and then do it.  I have my son to think about our son he is more important to me then him.  I will write a letter and see what that does.

He has got to want to stop using and sounds like he does not want to. Give him an ultimatum me and the baby or crack,maybe write it in a letter,but let him know you will help him to stop. I never used crack, I do not understand it really. I guess my main issue with it is that people do it knowing ahead of time that it is a recreational drug and it is dangerous. You don't accidentally get addicted to it. Maybe he has underlying emotional issues that he is trying to run from. It is a dangerous drug and from what I heard  a little is never enough and once you smoke you don't want to stop. I feel horrible for you about this, you and your babe deserve better. I hope he can be helped.

Dont cause a fight.   He is ur childs father. I have been with my wife 4 sixteen yrs. And can tell u I was that lost cause in the begin of our marriage

I can give u some advice on this. I had two friends in one of my social circles, I do not hang in that circle any longer. They were my friends for years, one worked for me for about a year I recieved a call one day telling me this friend had a crack problem n that I should talk to him. He denied got anger, so I called others and they said much of nothing , like men do he can handle it. He was the same type of user every thursday. One Friday he did not show up for work. Needless to say I miss my friend so much. I think everday did I do enough. I miss him, I miss him. So yes crack kills even a  person who u think only uses infrequently, notice I said think uses infrequently. Try to find him help. Maybe his brother or sister or parent. I wish I did more then just accept my dead friends answer that he hardly did it. As for my other friend the dumba$$ bought crack while working reading water meters, now has no job!!!
