Well, this happened to one of my friends, minus the drug involvement...but including the haircut, losing 30 lbs (which she could barely stand to lose...we had a talk about that one...) got a new job, new car, etc. The guy kept jerking her around all the time. He cheated on her and then slowly told what he had done. At first he said just kissing. Then he said...ummm...I don't want to say it on here, but involving hands and personal parts. Then, he admitted to the thing that is only one step away from sex (also don't wanna say that!). Ever time he had one of these stories, all about the same girl, she called me and cried and said "come get me, I can't stay here" and I would go pick her up and she would stay with me for a while. I tried each time to tell her, if he says one thing and then says another, you should assume that he has gone all the way (which he had). So she cut him off. Then the whole weight loss, 180 degree change happened, followed by her "near death experience" (she got hit by a car at the mall...it twisted her ankle). She got taken to the nearest hospital where she immediately called him to pick her up. She told me "He was there for me in my time of need"...HELLO, she called him from the freaking hospital saying she was hit by a car...he would have to be TOTALLY heartless to just leave her there...so that was her reasoning for getting back with him again. They are still together. I do NOT want her to marry him. But I am pretty vocal about that, so I know that I have warned her!
People like this don't think they can find anyone who will treat them right. It might take an intervention, or even catching an STD or something from his cheating ways for her to finally wake up...
