This may not be the right place to post this but I don't care I'm so happy! My H celebrated his second anniversary off marijuana yesterday! I love him so much!<P>Before it used to be a major love buster. When he wasn't at work or a bar, he'd be home smoking pot. He'd leave the stuff half burned in the ash trays sometimes and I'd catch hell if I accidently dumped it out with the cigarette butts. It was awful.<BR>I'd pour saltwater on his plants and rubbing alcohol on his seeds and bake the seeds in the microwave. But he stopped using pot for me!<P>And he's stayed clean! He loves me ! He loves me! And I love him! Yea!!!!!!!

Congrats, that is so awesome. <BR>I do have a question for you, my H smokes pot , has for years,and it really is starting to bother me now. I have realized a pattern with him now, its like when he is out he is damn grouchy and gets angry with everybody, it really bothers me and I realize that it is a real need for him, not a just a want. I know how hard it is to quit as i used to do it when I was in my teenage years, but I don't see the point to it now, and it bothers me to see him do it so much.How did your H quit, what did you do to get him to quit? <BR>

We had a lot of negative things in our marriage, pot wasn't the worst. To make a long story short, I left him and our daughter.<P>While I was gone, he quit cold turkey. He said he needed a clear head for this. He stopped drinking too. He had to care for a 3 year old by himself and he couldn't do that stoned or drunk. He is and has always been a devoted father.<P>When I came home I was afraid he'd restart, but he changed. 180 degrees. I had hurt him really bad. But he wanted me home more.<P>A lot of things changed. Neither of us want to go back to the way things were. Both of us gave up a lot to make this marriage work. Marijuana was part of what he gave up for me. And I'm grateful.<BR>
