Run like the wind. I have seen numerous people who do coke and it always does the same thing. It turns them into giant jerks. It makes them totally selfcentered, and being around it puts you at risk of getting arrested as much as it does him. I am very sorry to tell you this, but the coke is more powerful than you will ever be. There is no way that you will win in this situation. I know you care for him, it is obvious by the fact that you are trying to find answers. Another point...cocaine is illegal in every state in the US. It is a felony offense, no matter how small the amount. He knows it is a felony, but he chooses to take his chances.
Right now he is just your boyfriend. He has a monkey on his back that he cannot beat. What kind of a future do you think is in store for you if you stay with a man willing to risk his freedom as well as yours and any possible family you may have together? There are millions of other guys out there who do not use illegal drugs and value a good woman and family above all else.
You already know the answer to your question. Do not make anymore excuses to stay with him. You are not his keeper, he is not your responsibility, and he does not respect himself or you.

Yes you should be worried for his life and yours too. It can wreck any relationship. I mean look at it this way. If you two were to get married, do you really think you could have a child with him on drugs.. I would hope not due to the side affects it would have on the child not to mention a possible deformity. One day his luck will run out, he will get highly addicted if not already, lose his job, lots of bad stuff. It happened to me and my husband. I gave him an ultimatum. It was me or the coke. He chose me and has been clean since. I wish you the best of luck. I couldnt take the toll the drugs were playing on his health and our relationship and our finances, so.. its best to find a way out of the relationship or he does need to get some professional help. Nothing good is going to happen until he does quit.

Its bad but you shouldnt be worried for his life unless he drinks it for 20 years! Coke really PACKS ON THE POUNDS. If you drink coke everyday for a year, you will gain 15 pounds. It also has some chemicals that are bad for you in it. If you put Coca-Cola on a car it melts the paint. Maybe he could try drinking it 6 days a week for a while and slowly get down to like 1 or 2.

You should be worried for your own life!! You cannot help him because this is something he has to do himself. When and only when he is ready he will quit, but until then you stand a chance of getting hurt or worse, not to mention getting in trouble with the law.
Is he worth going to jail over? I think you already know the answer. Just take care of yourself and let him go for your own sake. God bless you both.

You should encourage him to seek PROFESSIONAL help as soon as possible. If he will not go you should still enter counseling and have someone who you can talk to about it. I found that there is no way to help someone who does not want to be helped. You sound very supportive and willing to help and that is a great quality, as far as leaving or staying, only you will know when it has reached a level that you are no longer willing to tolerate or able to handle, do not ruin your own life over it but please try to be supportive and helpful.

Yes you should be worried. But not for his life, for yours. You are not responsible for his choices. If you have thought about breaking up with him over his drug addiction before, think about DOING it now. You cannot have a relationship with a drug addict that is good for you.

it is real bad & it can kill you over time, you need to be worried for your own life hon because if your boyfriend really wants to stop then he needs to seek help with the help of his family & you. i would hate to see anything happen to the both of you so please seek the help right away.

Which coke are you talking about? The soda or the drug?

I think you shouldn't give him up just because of that little thing. He needs you most at this stage. Give him a chance.

He needs to get help and you can help him do that if you care about him as much as you say you do then you can help, he can stop if he really wants to, but if he doesn't then he doesn't care about your relationship. He can stop and you can help him do it.
