Drug Abuse

Question by Gillaume: I just found out my girlfriend of 3 years just started working for a “topless maid service” website.?
I’m not going to post the name of the website but she’s on their profile of “maids” using a pseudonym.

I was so infuriated that I left her last night and threatened to tell her family and everyone we know. Also, I found out that she’s back to doing and abusing prescription drugs, which ended almost a yearlong sobriety for her.

Please help me. I feel betrayed. I’m angered. I’m hurt. I’m confused. I’m going crazy in my mind her. She has ignored all of my plead for her to stop what she’s doing and get help. And I’m pretty sure that this “topless maid-cleaning” website is just a front for prostitution/escort service.

The only person I reached out to is her brother and I don’t know if he’s going to do anything to help get her out of this because her whole family and I do not see eye-to-eye. They have a history of being major enablers of her past drug abuse and I can’t tolerate that. What do I do? I hate the fact that I care about this girl so much.

You have forgotten yourself. I know that you say you care about her, you can love her to the moon and back but it isn’t going to make her change, she has to do that for herself. I know its going to hurt but you need to move on until she decides what she is going to do with her life because right now she doesn’t need to be in a relationship, she needs to be getting herself some help.

Wow, nothing like professing to care for a person and then threatening to besmirch
her to everyone for making money.

Topless cleaning services are just that….cleaning services that you pay a little extra for.
They are unlikely to be turning tricks because the people who pay for cleaning are not paying for escorts.
Grow the hell up.
