when do they get to the point of enough is enough?

It’s a quote form the Mexican…in the movie the answer is never but is that true?

I have been with my boyfriend for two years we even were engaged for a while but broke that off when I realized that I couldn’t be sure that I could trust him.
He has been addicted to oxycontin since he was 14 years old (he is 21 now) but he was clean when we started dating and he said I helped him to stay off it. I thought everything was going great untill this past january. He relapsed and lied to me when I was suspcious of him and thought he was high. I ended up finding a syringe and spoon he had hidden and we almost broke up but I love him so much and I wanted to help him get through it. He swore it was only once and he saw how it had almost ended out relationship and would never do it again.
Before I forget, I should mention he also is not in school and has not been able to hold a job for more than 2 months the entire time I’ve known him which leaves me supporting him most of the time with some help form his parents.
Anyway months have gone by and every once in a while I would get suspicious that he was using again but I would always let it go because he would swear he wasn’t and say that he would never lie to me again and he learned his lesson last time and all that. And then recently he admitted that he has been relapsing for months and also he had spent all the money his dad had given him to pay his half of the rent. Even then I was still going to stay with him and support him while he got clean he was planning on going to a detox and everything but in the 3 days while he was waiting to get into the detox he ended up stealing about $500 from me for drugs. I kicked him out and told him it was over and he is now in detox.
Even though I am mad and after everything he’s done, I still love him so much. I know he loves me too and when he is not using besides the job thing he treats me so well and is so good to me.
I also know that addiction is a disease that is causeing his fucked up behaviors. But still, it doesn’t mean he can’t controll himself. He has lied to me for so long and he has stollen from me but the fucked up thing is I still can’t even stay mad at him. I just miss him.
He is going to rehab and trying to turn his life around but I don’t know if it will stick. Do I give him another chance or has he gone too far? I can’t trust the advise of anyone I know because they don’t know the whole story…I’m embarrassed to tell people how much I put up with.
