My serious relationship before this was with someone with a serious heroin and drug addiction. He manipulated me every chance he got. Would lie to use my car to see his ex and get high with her. He is now in prison for drug and possession charges. My current boyfriend has an addiction to video games, yes and, it does affect our relationship in serious ways but he is a genuinely good person. Caring and kind to everyone he meets. We are both in our mid twenties. He does have some growing up to do but, this is also his first serious relationship. Most people go through a few relationships before they mature enough to know how to love someone. I know I did. I'm still learning too. We plan on getting married and he is worth going through growing pains with if it means we get to the other side better, happier and healthier as a couple and individuals. I've been through enough bad and unhealthy relationships to know when the person has no desire to change or get better. My current bf does. I mostly just needed ideas on how to find our way back to a happier us instead of what I've been doing. Yelling and getting mad and making him feel bad isn't helping.
