Hi henry...ray here from philippines

This guys partner is very fortunate to have him. This guy in the video deserves a lot of respect.

Troy, thank you. As a drug counselor, your story meant a great deal to me! You and Henry have the best relationship-------one built on honesty and mutual support. All the best in the world to both of you.........thanks, bro...............Ray

You can tell how he talks like a teenager when talking about how they met & fell in love (love does that) but talks like an adult when talking about going though addiction 👍🏻

Can we have Henry's story as well? Great video. Great work I'mfromdriftwood

Beautiful story. And I hope that they continue to have great success in their marriage.

Thank you for sharing your story, it is refreshing to hear an honest story. I hope he find the strength to stay off drugs and focus on you. You deserve a full life with a focused partner… Best regards, BMore Mike.

10 years! Congratulations for sticking it out and becoming even closer. Glad you're married and happy!

Wonderful story! That spotlight on Henry 🌟 - he was meant for you, wow! I love how you showed him true love with boundaries when he relapsed. That’s compassion and commitment. Congratulations on your marriage ❤️😇🎉

My late spouse and I met at a friend's house in Muskegon, MI in 1974. We finally decided to live together in Detroit, MI...aka..Highland Park, MI We were together for 56 years. We married in Santa Fe, NM in 2004. i wouldn't change anything. We had a wonderful life.

I’m glad you met your husband and lived your lives for each other. My husband and I are from the Detroit area as well. We met in 1990, dated for 3 years, then moved into a small bungalow in Ferndale. After 11 years living together, he accepted a new career in Atlanta. We really didn’t want to leave Michigan, but we didn’t have a choice the way Michigan’s economy was starting to fall apart. After about 7 years we decided it was time to buy a house before the market became unaffordable again. We made the right choice. The only thing we regretted was in that time, both his and my parents passed away. It was difficult, but our parents knew we made the right choice. A few years ago I was diagnosed with cancer. It was the hardest point of our relationship. He stood by my side through everything. Two of my doctors told us they had never worked with a couple who were as devoted to each other as we are. This year will be 33 for us. We don’t know where the time went. I still remember him tapping my shoulder from behind, me turning around, and I was looking into the eyes of my future. He was smiling and held out his hand to shake mine and tell me his name. I’m so sorry you lost your husband, but without him, your life wouldn’t be what it became. I wish you much happiness and wonderful memories of the man you loved. If you lived in Palmer Park, I hope you two lived in one of the beautiful apartments behind Menjo’s. It was an exciting time to come out.

If Toby Maguire had long hair and a beard 😍

Testing limits yes. what a beautiful story and romance. well done Henry.

Great story, hope you two remain together for a long time. Being an ex alcoholic, wish someone would have given tough love. Maybe would not have been such a long hard ride. Happy for you!

Bless you both 🙏🏻 I was with an addict and despite me wanting him to be clean and stay clean, him going in and out of rehab and tears, lots and lots of tears... it just wasn’t in the cards for us I lovingly told him that if he relapsed again then I was done, my time on his ride was up, he unfortunately relapsed and I left 💔❤️🌈

You never mentioned "love". Does you story show that deep and abiding friendship superseded the initial sense of 'love', which is really lust ... a part of nature's trick to bring two people together to procreate, even they don't know each other? This, of course, is my "take" on relationships and life.

Sometimes the only way to help someone is to leave them. You csn stay and keeo picking them up again and again. Giving them resources and a place to stay. Or let them hit that true rock bottom. I've seen it a lot in my family and in my friend's group. People will take and take from you. Sometimes you hsve to separate, they even do this in interventions. They give an ultimatum. It's a classic intervention technique.

Oh yes, reformed drug addicts are worthy of all the respect in the world because we HAVE to respect they've 'been through a lot'.

Oh, you want empathy or allowances to be made for you because you spent the last ten years sniffing goodness knows what or smoking goodness knows what? No, no, NO! Get over yourself.
