My experience was somewhat different:  I was not involved in her addiction.  She was, actually, in a meth maintenance program when we met, and I had given my heart before I knew the truth about her.  She had been three months clean.  She was beautiful and very intelligent---she took a copy of Dante's Divine Comedy to an outpatient procedure she had to undergo.  When we parted, it was like having a part of my flesh amputated.
