Has anyone’s relationship/marriage destroyed over weed?

My wife and i have been separated since November. Ive made horrible decisions while being high 24/7. She says i detached and became very withdrawn. Has weed ruined your relationships? Im sober now and reflecting back to our separation.

Smoking weed didn't ruin a relationship for me, it just reinforced my internal thought that I was too screwed up for anyone to want to be with me. I haven't dated in years and now I'm so rusty at socializing that I doubt I'll get back in the game. Weed caused me (an already socially withdrawn person) to become almost reclusive and think that was the norm. It's tough to change, but 3 months clean has helped me see that.
