to make a long story short, after two months of dating, i asked my girlfriend of 2 months to marry me. everything was fine with our relationship up to that point but their was an underlying sense of uneasiness on my part. she was hooked on prescription medications and could not sleep unless she took 4 pills every night.they were for anxiety, depression, migraines, and back pain. taking up to 50 loritabs a month. i guess that i was so caught up with my emotions with her that i did not see the warning signs that were waving in my face.does taking all those pills alter your personality over time , making her insecure and paranoid? I never gave her any reason to be insecure I was loyal and compassionate and very much in love with her but she still had trust issues with me. her 22 year old son was also going to move in with us while he was going to college for three more years. being 47 years old and her being 43, i felt that he should be on his own.also she made almost 40,000 dollars a year and was always broke asking me for money just to make the rent payment. i always have been financially responsible. it has been nearly 4 months since the split and i have made no attempt to contact her so i guess that i am ready to move on but i still miss her . she was a beautiful person but after 4 failed relationships,i guess that i made the right decision to call off the engagement. i guess my question is the drug abuse and the long term affects it would have on her, and if i did the right thing. jeff
