Cops arrested my partner for felony heroin possession

I had no clue she had a problem, but now that she's in rehab I'm feeling strangely relieved!

    Cary needn't have gone further than the first sentence.

    Her recovery does not depend on you. Your presence in her life may or may not make her recovery easier, but that's irrelevant--this is a situation she brought on herself, and it's a problem she will have to solve for herself. And what kind of relationship are you going to have with her now, anyway? One where you always have to wonder what she's doing behind your back? Get on with your own life.
