"entagled?" It sounds like your love interest is not fully ready to move on to a relationship with you and you need to back off or risk a broken heart. Be friends for now, but don't involve yourself until you know it is truly over between them. No one wants to be a 3rd leg. People that haven't come to a decision over their ex have no right to date seriously, but, unfortunately many do. I was married before, filed for divorce, but I NEVER wanted to return to my ex so I attained a separation until my divorce was final and I went out on the dating circuit again. I was always honest with the guy I was interested in and told him I was filing for divorce because it can get messy and I wanted him to know what he could be getting involved in. Your boyfriend/girlfriend can't seem to "cut the strings that bind him/her" and divorcing someone or even leaving someone you just had a relationship with can get complicated and confuse one's feelings. I suggest you communicate your feelings more to this person. As much as it will hurt your heart you need to set down some hard and fast rules. Tell them that you are splitting up with them because they haven't been honest with themselves or you about how they feel about their ex, and that you aren't sitting around waiting. This will either smarten this person up and they'll make a choice, or they will run back to their ex. If they choose to leave you whether they go back to their ex or not it's not a good idea to be friends and a better idea just to move on with your life. Love is about really caring about someone; being loyal, never wanting to hurt their feelings on purpose, being open and honest and giving all you can give emotionally to the one you love. This person you are with is confused and needs to have a kick in the butt to make them decide what it is they want. If you keep hanging around and doing nothing you are an "enabler" and you're sending out mixed messages to them that they can stomp on your heart anytime they so choose. Be strong, tell them you aren't waiting around and that they've hurt your feelings. Good luck Marcy

How do you tell your friends and family that you are dating a recovering drug addict if you have accepted this person into your life and all is going well?

My suggestion would be to not tell your friends and family members about this recovering drug addict until he fully recovers. Your friends and family would be more accepting and understanding if the person you were dating is now in good shape and is not still in need of professional help. It's a bad idea to tell you family and friends , " the guy I'm dating has problems and hes' a recovering drug addict ". It's just a turn off. But try to be careful around these people. Just because a person is recovering it doesn't mean they're cured of their problems.
