"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.

No. No matter how bad your life is, sharing it with more drug addicts will not make it any better.
No, he is a recovering drug addict. He goes to NA meetings 3 times a week.

Drug addict is the correct spelling. A drug addict suffers from drug addiction.
ofcourse not.nobody should take drugs and should be a drug addict.
My suggestion would be to not tell your friends and family members about this recovering drug addict until he fully recovers. Your friends and family would be more accepting and understanding if the person you were dating is now in good shape and is not still in need of professional help. It's a bad idea to tell you family and friends , " the guy I'm dating has problems and hes' a recovering drug addict ". It's just a turn off. But try to be careful around these people. Just because a person is recovering it doesn't mean they're cured of their problems.
I think anybody can be forgiven as long as there is couseling and the trust is rebuilt!Has it been a partner ship or just the addict controlling a good hearted person!
No. Get away from cheating drug addicts you're better then that.
