Relationships with the opposite sex are often problematic. For example, in the case of smoking marijuana by one of the partners. And only a confident girl can wean a guy from using drugs.
Instructions
Step 1
Be patient and persistent. If you decide to take on such a difficult task, you will have to endure a lot of torment, because influencing an adult is not so easy. Tears, screams and pleas in such a matter are unlikely to help. The ultimatum "either me or smoking" does not always work, and when uttering it, you must be one hundred percent sure of the guy's feelings, otherwise you risk being disappointed.
Step 2
Have a heart-to-heart talk with your guy. Simple conversation can pay off. Try not to make claims, reproaches, do not frighten him with the birth of green children and other myths. Express your concerns, fears and doubts. Your anxiety means a lot to a truly loving person, and in this case, he will definitely listen to you. Tell him that you will support him and help him to overcome the addiction in any way. So you designate your involvement and show that he will not be left alone in such a difficult situation.
Step 3
Ask friends and family for help. Sometimes it is necessary to influence a drug addict not directly, but indirectly. Find out who your boyfriend's authority is and reach out to him. It is important that this person is not a supporter of authoritarianism and is able to act on your boyfriend by persuasion, not force.
Step 4
Encourage your boyfriend to seek professional help. If his addiction has gone too far and poses a real threat to his health and life, he will have to resort to consulting specialists. Persuade the guy to go to a regular appointment with a narcologist or at least a psychologist. Both doctors are able to help him understand the problem and begin treatment.
