Hi Sammy the hardest part about recovery is getting honest about the addiction. Both with yourself and those around you. I lost my partner but it turned out to be the only way I could heal. He also needed to be away from me to do his own work on himself. By not telling people we are in our addiction its not fair to them. Being selfish and holding back that information to protect our ownselves is part of still being an unhealthy addict. You own it to your gf to be truthful and allow her to make her own decisions on what to do. If it helps my counselor told me most of his patients end back with there’s partners after about 6 months once they’ve both been able to heal the trust and other issues in there relationships. Its something to at least look at as a possible positive.
