      Because sometimes love isn’t enough … she already had a steady job, and enjoyed partying and more than a modest amount of drug use.

      My previous girlfriend had died from an OD, and I desperately needed stability and to get away from illegal stuff because I felt like it was rotting me from the inside.

      She found someone else who didn’t want to tie her down, and I found a proper salaried job 200 miles away … ironically, working for the government.

      We were both happier, at least for a while.
