DEAR DEIDRE: I BROKE up with my boyfriend three weeks ago because of his addictions.
His mum gives him money, which pays for drink and drugs. He does drugs daily.

He never had money but did help out with my kids and they loved him.
I told his mum what she was doing wasn’t helping, but she wouldn’t listen, though I think she knew about the drugs.
I’m 35 and my ex is 37.
We were together for four years.
I now feel so alone, struggling to cope while my boyfriend is quids in, spending his days in the pub, thanks to his mum.
DEIDRE SAYS: Your ex’s mum is cruelly irresponsible but he is the only one who can end his drink and drug problems.
Tell him how sad you and the kids are without him but that there is no way he can come home until he beats his addictions.
He can find help through FRANK (talktofrank.com, 0300 123 6600).
