Conditional Love
01/03/2014

Dr. Laura,

My husband drew a line in the sand after we had been dating long enough for him to learn of my past. I had smoked cigarettes, done drugs, and drank to excess, and had sex with several partners. I did none of those things when we met and he wouldn't have given me a second look if I had. After he had professed his love for me he told me in no uncertain terms that if I ever smoked, drank, did drugs or cheated he would be gone in a flash.  I do not want to return to that life and I certainly don't want to hurt my now husband, but I am glad he drew the line with me. I know what to expect from him.

Thanks for all you do in the community,

Susan
