Should I break up with him?

So iv been with this guy for about over 5 years now. When we first got together I told him he had to quit drinking and smoking marijuana if he wanted to be with me. So he said ok. 5 yrs later he tells me that he never quit. We got in a big argument and everything. And the other day I talked to his sister and brother in law (he lives with them) about him smoking pot and drinking and howmuch has he been doing it. She said every night that really shocked me. I confronted him and I told him that it bothers me and I can't be with someone who does that every night. He was like well don't worry it's not bad for me. He said he would never do it in front of me. I said what about in the future? If we got married and lived together thatd impossible to be away from. He said well I'll just go to friends. Um what everynight? What about kids? I don't want my future kids knowing their daddy's a pothead. And they'd be thinking it's ok to do.

This guy is my soulmate and so sweet but idk what to do

    Lying about something so big should be a red flag. Just try and figure out what's best for you, and what are your limits. Follow what you figure out. 5 years is a long time, so I understand why you'd feel so strongly. Also keep in mind what you'll be sacrificing, and what he would be. Good luck!

    dump him... im sorry its obvious you really love this guy but if he cant put you over booze and pot then he will definitely not put kids over booze and pot if he doesnt even respect his gf/wife...

    and the 'ill never do it in front of you' and him saying he'll go to a friends is confirming that he does not plan on stopping

    I know this sounds childish but make a list.. right down all the good things and bad things about dating him. it will be pretty obvious by the end.. and I just think it's bad he lied to you.. a working relationship is all about trust
