Dumb and Dumber....

Dumb and Dumber are a couple a with Level 5 RabiesLove.
Now to qualify for Level 5 RabiesLove Status these are the requirement...
*Both people MUST be individual Rabid Hot Messes before meeting.
*Both people MUST have individual addictions before meeting.
*Both people MUST have been involved in numerous failed previous relationships.

OK now that we have established the criteria ...
Jose and Jessica come from "good" families. Jessica and Jose both in their early twenties had promising careers, large circles of friends, and were the life of the party. They had met but were already involved with other people.
Fast forward a few years.... for most adults the party stops or at least tappers off somewhat. Then there are the people who have crossed the line of social drug use into full blown addicts.

By the time that Jose runs into Jessica again he has had several failed marriages, a failed career, failed rehab attempts, and he was barely 30.
Jessica has her own laundry lists of failures due to her love affair with crack.

Can you see the train wreck coming????

Jose and Jessica go out one time and that's all it took. Infected... LEVEL 5.
Jose is immediately making proclamations of sobriety that with Jessica he can conquer drug addiction because she understands him like no one else before.
Jessica also says she is going to get clean and find a job.
Everyone around them are screaming "NO! NO! NO! She is Dumb and he is Dumber"

But Jose and Jessica are both in the "manic" phase of RabiesLove, which means... everything is Perfect, wonderful, utter bliss... actually it is a natural high.
It's important to remember it is just a "phase".
For a while they were sober and they both were able to find jobs...
But the "Rabid Hot Mess" phase took over when Jose found out that Jessica had relapsed.... that little rock....is a bad bitch.
So depressed, Jose also relapsed...so now they are getting high together. Jose had a cocaine problem, a pill problem, a meth problem...but he had never smoked crack.

Now they are jobless, broke... Jessica is blowing old ass drug dealers for crack.
Jose is becoming violent.... because he finds out Jessica is blowing drug dealers. The police are called. They break up. They get back together. They break up.....
Months, turn into years.
Jose and Jessica are currently together and they are still very active addicts. Jessica is still trading her body for drugs and Jose is proclaiming that he cannot live with her... and that he cannot live without her...
It's RabiesLove Level 5.

Jessica is Dumb and Jose is Dumber...
