October 27, 2009Throughout my life I always feel the need to help the people I love in every way possible. It’s weird in a way that right now is when we’ve begun talking about this monomyth because I’m dealing with the biggest issue I ever have with someone in need of help. An ex boyfriend who remains to be my best friend called me at two am in tears. Coming from a guy who has a hard time showing emotion my stomach immediately went to knots. One of the main reasons our relationship fell apart had been lack of communication which had been the result of him smoking too much marijuana. Over two years together I know him better than anyone else. My view of his lifestyle had been accepted thinking it had just been a phase. But it had slowly taken over his life. As he cried and told me how alone he felt and that he realized he was wasting away everything in his life. This literally broke my heart. Being four hours away and helpless all I could do was listening to his thoughts and worries with his life. Asking for help to change his ways is something I am willing to do but stuck not knowing exactly how to help. I’ve never left his side and never will. I believe in all the things I love about him, and know the potential he holds. I will be there as he gets back the life he deserves and should live.
