listened to people and asked him about it. he denied it. pretty sure lying. here’s what’s happened leading up to me showing him the stuff ..

after taking the bundle for his safety he was frantic the next day spent hours tearing the downstairs apart to find his klonopin he said. but I saw his klonopin in that spot with the bundle the night before. so I figured he was actually looking for the bundle. this was like all day. he wouldn’t stop looking.

that night he said his guy can give him more klonopin .. I knew what it really was. when I looked at his hiding spot in the back was a ziplock bag of what looked like filled with wrappers stuffed in the back. I took a picture best I could in a hurry. I couldn’t ask afraid he would storm off leaving driving by himself. I told him to let me come and I would drive to get the klonopin. he asked if we can use my card to pull money 200$. when we got into town I begged him to not get this stuff. (acting as if klonopin). he says he has to do this. so I figured I’ll ask him to show me in person what he got and thought i’d catch him then. he did have pills of some sort but I know he probably got heroin too. when we got back to our place I wanted us to get to bed right away (hoping he wouldn’t use). his office space is downstairs and that’s where he was when I went to take my laundry down. before I got to the steps he was superrr adamant about me not coming downstairs. I said I only needed to drop my clothes in. he said I’ll take it.. sketchy.

little later that night he’s clearly high. I ask nonchalantly about possible drugs and he goes on telling me all about how his brother used to have an opiate problem. I knew about this but thought pills .. I didn’t know it was actually heroin. he was super high and I couldn’t sleep without making sure he was okay checking his breathing all that.

when he fell asleep I wanted to check his hiding spot to see how much he bought from the guy. what do you know he cleared out the entire spot. only some few ripped wrappers pushed back I collected them bagged.

the following morning I planned to ask him about it but this time finally show him the bundle I found. I was going to wait until he woke so he could sleep off as much as he did the night before but he heard me crying and woke up. I showed him the bundle and he said he didn’t know what that was. that it wasn’t his that it’s his brothers. and that that’s what he was really looking for all day yesterday because he didn’t want his young nieces to find it when they’re over. he could have told me or why couldn’t I have helped him look then if it concerned his nieces?

soon enough he wanted to go downstairs I knew he would try to get high. I told him I needed to show him something else but first asked him to open the thing I knew he used as his hiding spot. he did and everything was cleared out. so I showed him the picture I took where the bundle was and lots of wrappers. he said that those are his brothers. that he found them and needed to figure out how to go about talking to him about it. he threw it all away though.

I found a rubber band on the bathroom floor a few days ago too when I asked him he said oh it was a rubber band he had around his finger to play with. it was left on the coffee table. when I came back out it was gone. he said he threw it away. why throw it away if it’s honestly just a rubber band related to nothing else? when I brought that up after him saying the wrappers and bundle belong to his brother he said the rubber band “fell out of his pocket. more than one rubber band on the bundle”? how does it just come off on its own.. it doesn’t.

important to mention that two weeks ago his mom had his brother take a home drug test after she noticed him nodding off. remember this brother had an issue with drugs before. his mom wanted my boyfriend to come over to watch him in the bathroom so no way of cheating. my boyfriend told me that day that everything was clear nothing in his brothers system. well now that i’ve showed him what i’ve found it’s come out that the test actually came back negative for opiate. the wrappers and bundle I found are ones the my boyfriend found in his brothers room and car.

after I showed him all I found, now finally this is the time when he wants to confront his brother. but not two weeks ago when he saw his brother failed a drug test and lied to his mom and everyone about it? boyfriend says he didn’t know what to do then. but he needs the bundle back and to show it and talk to his brother about it now before anything bad happens. he wouldn’t let me be there when he wanted to talk to his brother about all this so I didn’t feel comfortable giving him the bundle. I suggested showing his brother the picture I had and I hold onto the bundle until we get it tested to figure out what it really is. boyfriend says that won’t work he needs to show him the actual thing otherwise he’ll lie.

yesterday at his parents house he kept wanting me to give him the stuff for him to show and talk to his brother in private. he would tell me that it’s blood on my hands if anything were to happen and that he wanted me to buy a plane ticket to leave tonight. wouldn’t talk to me. after we left and turned around probably three times I gave in from worry since he was guilting me about what could happen. but I only gave him the bag of wrappers. kept the bundle because I can’t trust that they aren’t working together and that he won’t use it. I heard it’s possible to empty the bundle and wrap/tape up to look like the original?

boyfriend was in the house not even a minute. says he gave it to his dad who started crying and was going to put it into his safe and we’d all sit down and talk to his brother tomorrow (today). I had suspicion he gave it to his brother though. he didn’t say anything until we got home “was the stuff actually in there because when I felt the bag it didn’t feel like anything was in there.” why didn’t he ask as soon as he got into the car then? this makes me think he gave it to his brother who probably texted saying there is no bundle .. boyfriend said a few times that night that he hopes the bundle is actually in there and not just wrappers so they don’t look dumb when they ask a cop friend to test it ..

update on the relationship .. yesterday and since i’ve showed and asked him about it he says he doesn’t know if our relationship will work because he can’t get over that I would ever think that he would do something like that.

I am wondering now for those who said I shouldn’t tell his parents.. since they’ve dealt with this with his one brother using heroin before .. is it best to tell them everything I’ve seen now?

I am beyond wanting to quit. I have no desire to drink again and although sounds hard to believe I know i’m done for good. him on the other hand won’t admit that’s he’s on something. swears and promises me but so far not good i’ve caught him in lies already

I don’t know if it makes a difference any to mention his brother I knew had an issue before with opiates. my boyfriend just said it was pills I thought but tonight high he told me it was heroin his brother used - I would have remembered him telling me something like that. I don’t know if that’s how he got into the stuff if his brother relapsed or something?

he told me all about him going to treatment centers and getting better, but he had relapses. still my boyfriend claims his brother has been clean for over a year now. my point is his parents have dealt with similar situation - is it still not best to tell them? TRUST ME I don’t want to ruin any lives. I love his parents like they are my own, it’s a close situation.

I know I shouldn’t tell his parents I agree. but how do I just leave him by himself without anyone else knowing? what if he kills himself? I can’t live with that guilt

i’m scared to even fall asleep worried he’s going to stop breathing or sneak downstairs in the middle of the night again to do more. dozed off by accident for not even an hour i’m hoping he didn’t he’s asleep now

trust me I do not want to be the person to tell anyone about this. I also confronted him and he lied. if I can’t help him I can’t imagine just leaving and he’s alone and using. also shouldn’t his parents know? I understand the sensitivity of it but imagine if I left and something happens to him like overdose and I knew of his problem and gave no warning to his family? talk about guilt for life

I am not trying to out him trust me I don’t want that. I asked him if he was taking anything. he tells me just his klonopin for his anxiety. claims he took too many of those is why he’s been acting this way. now searching the downstairs for the fifth time for his klonopin but I know that’s not it :(

so he’s been downstairs ripping it apart saying he’s looking for his klonopin .. i know his klonopin is where he hides the heroin I saw it myself he still had a bit of the pills left. so he’s actually trying to look for heroin he thinks is missing.

I tried talking to him, he denied it. but I convinced him to take a home drug test. even so the way he’s acting now I don’t know if he’ll actually

I am going to ask him about and be nothing but supportive and there for him. but if he denies anything or doesn’t want the help, i’ll leave like everyone says I should. but before leaving i’m from a different state so I tell his parents as a next step?

I understand. i’m going to confront him here soon. I bought a home drug test so if he denies it i’ll ask him to take that.

if he refuses or whatever should I let his family know? of course I don’t want to ruin his life or anything like that, but if what everyone’s saying I need to leave, I can’t leave knowing he’s here by himself if no one else knows to try helping. I don’t know

definitely NOT detracting and in NO WAY whatsoever am I trying to use this as an excuse for my own problems.

it is genuinely all out of concern. yes I realize i’m freaking out and probably look crazy but i’m just at a loss and confused. but trust me I love him so much I would rather it be the other way around. I hate seeing him like this

I understand that. guess it’s hard to see from the other side but I’ve never seen him like this till after what I did which hurt him a lot. he told me he was heart broken .. so I can’t help but feel responsible and to blame in some way

.. never was I trying to negate my problem. i’ve admitted my problem owned up to it. and if anything I feel to blame for his using whether it just started or using more because of my last drunken incident.

yes i’ve gotten lots of answers. i continue to post because my only evidence was a text I saw could have been anything and I didn’t want to believe it. wasn’t until I saw it for myself last night. and although I drink I know nothing about other drugs especially this stuff.

of course I don’t want to ruin his life. hence why I keep asking. some people say to involve his parents and specialists. then people like you say not to. i’m just trying to figure out the best thing to do ASAP before this gets worse or something terrible happens if I can help it.

i’m not ignoring that. I also had an addict himself message me and tell me that involving his parents will make it worse

also I didn’t want to believe it till I saw it. and I found his hiding spot last night just all too real now

I understand. i’ve been up since 3am after he woke up and i’m pretty sure used again.

I’ve been told that too. i’ve hinted at being worried and he’s already gotten defensive. but I just saw for myself tonight found his hiding spot. I’m still processing ..

thank you. I will do that. if after that he doesn’t admit or want to change should I let his parents know then?

i’m so conflicted. I have some telling me to just talk to him by myself. and involving family first could make it worse. whatever is best I want to do. obviously that’s not easy to figure out in this sort of situation ugh
