How do you and should you stop loving a recovering drug addict?

"Like any romantic relationship, dating a recovering addict can have its challenges. If you're realistic about what you can handle and what kind of support you can offer, chances are the qualities you're looking for in a partner can be found in a recovering addict just as easily as someone with no history of addiction.

Do

• get the facts about their recovery

• educate yourself about the disease of addiction

• support their recovery program

• know your limits

Don't

• make snap judgments

• rescue or enable

• discount your own needs

• ignore the signs of relapse"
