a thought....
addiction to me means i'm past dependency and now abusing.  
But to stop the addiction there is physical withdraw.

There is no physical withdraw from addiction to love, or sex, or gambling, shopaholics...

Emotional issues may be alot alike, but certainly not the physical dependency/withdraw.

another name that we can all relate to is co-dependency
taking care of others
loving people who are no good for us
i get what your saying
my sponsor stayed with a man that constantly cheated on her, at 12 years clean she went to a 2 week retreat for co-dependency
great topic btw
this is an addictions forum, not just an opiate addiction forum
we can also get addicted to people
j.....google co-dependency or goto your local library and ask for books on this subject
you can post more aobut your situation, i am sure some of us have been addicted to people, places or things

I believe shes being serious....Im sorry about that hun, we are mostly addicted to drugs here.  Not love so much, maybe if we didnt take so many drugs, i would and probably could be addicted to love.  This is probably the wrong forum for that, im sure one of the other forums could maybe be more helpful....sorry about that.

Ga Guy.....LMAO  It sure cured me !

I think I used to be addicted to being in love.... getting my heart ripped out once was really the best therapy for me. When the pain is greater than the joy, you'll stop.
