Would You Date a Junkie or Alcoholic?

Let us say you met a guy/girl and found they were a user/and or alcoholic, maybe a functional addict/alcoholic but would you date them if you knew?
Maybe you've met someone who you had deep feelings for but was a junkie, so what did you do?
I'm not just talking about people who are junkies dating other junkies but if you were clean and 'well' maybe you've never even touched illicit narcotics would you go out with a user if you fancied them? Also we can talk about marriage would you marry someone who was a junkie? 

I think I would probably date a junkie to some extent if I had deep feeling for them, even though I know it would be a lot of trouble and cause a ruckus but we human beings get such a short time on this damn rock of a planet so I think if I loved someone I would probably just swallow that bitter pill and listen to my heart. Anyone here date a junkie or alcoholic? How was your relationship with them?
If you would not date a Junkie/alcoholic then please tell us why...give legit a reason.

Why? Give us an answer 
Actually, I have second thoughts. No child deserves to have a junkie as a parent - even if they're functional. I wouldn't even consider having kids unless she had been clean and happy and functional for years and years. Just the chance of putting an innocent through that nightmare... it's not for me.

Because I wouldn't want to deal with their bullshit. I had a friend who was hooked on heroin and the mind games she would play and the lies & stealing just isn't something I want to be around.

At this point I would have severe misgivings about dating even a cigarette addict. I value self control quite a bit. I'm not about to put up with junkie drama -lying, thieving, and the roller coaster of highs and lows. There are just so many downsides, and the only upside is they're a really great person- as long as they have their fix. Yea, No. At the end of the day, if they're a serious addict, you're dating them and the drug.
An Ex junkie? Sure. I could respect and find a lot of common ground with someone who had some fun but has their shit under control now.

Not just no but HELL NO.
I've known many addicts of all types and they all have one thing in common: Their fix comes first. That's above their children, spouse, family, etc. Fuck that.

I personally don't hold any wrath around junkies. I don't think there reputation is justified. Consider the other drugs such as LSD beer Weed etc. Those ones are just as bad, but because they have a tag that says they're legal and or safe but regardless, you are still using. Really I am speaking frankly on the subject and it kind of makes me want to hesitate to speak on the topic, but because I am speaking so freely about the topic now I may as well persist in my endeavors to express my opinion for you. I did H a few times and I enjoyed the experience, and the damage afterward wasn't as bad as it was hyped, probably because my existence is already torture anyways. Can't get much worse now, and I'm lower than worms really. I would say that H isn't as dangerous as its thought to be, its a nice high, but not for me anymore.

I would never date a junkie or an alcoholic...
Then again I do have a small problem with alcohol myself, maybe that's why I don't feel like I should have a girlfriend

I agree the views on someone who is addicted to opiates is unfounded and generally bias, but the people who use them don't seem to give a shit about anything.

my girlfriend is an alcoholic. its a fucking joke in my opinion to say alcohol, its the thing that got me!! no. its that you have some kind of inner control/addiction issue that you have used to latch on to alcohol. it couldve been anything though. couldve been religion.
I think some people have an incredible ability to focus their energies on one thing. it can be positive in some cases, but when you have like low self-esteem or depression people tend to self medicate, and when they self-medicate with incredible focus, you get these addicts. I dont know if their reward-centers in their brains are permanently fucked as a result. But if they are, then trying to date a junkie/alcoholic is just an exercise in futility.

My boyfriend met me in college two years ago. We met in the hallway when I was walking to class, I saw him with a group of people dribbling balls, and then I requested that he come meet me later for I had to show him how much I loved him. Later that day we met in my backyard and I saw my ex waiting behind the fence, he wanted to cast his vengeance on the fact that I left him for my new bf, and because of this he always stood at my fence prepared to climb my fence and try to win back my love. I then jumped into my bfs arms and he carried me to the bed. We expected a night of sex, but instead we didn't get to that and we just watched tv. There was a tv show about life being documented in Ireland. They were going to document all the peoples lives as they were happening, so they could get personal confessions from the document hunters whom were in the habit of interrogating for information.
