Is he aware that you are still in the biz? Great that he has 6 yrs sober - but that can be a dangerous time for folks like him (and me) - anyone from the past can be a 'trigger' and sometimes (I said 'sometimes') it can remind us of just how easy it is to fall back into that style of living.
When we get sober we walk a 'fine line' - sobriety is nothing to be played with. If he is comfortable with 'who' and 'what' he is and understands and accepts his problem, then you might be the support he need to keep on the 'sober' path, BUT, it can go the other way in a hart beat.
I do not know either of you, but I do know you have been in the biz for a few years now and you have seen the good and bad in folks - you know better than anyone if your able to 'help' or 'enable' him. This lifestyle take a lot out of normal relationship and when you are dealing with being intimate with others, that is a hard pill to swallow for some men.
In closing, if you do choose to go back, seek professional counseling (for both of you) and tell that consolor EVERYTHING about you and he must be equally as honest about himself. If he did the 12 steps, he will not have a problem with doing just that (being open and honest)
I hoped this helped in some small way - good luck.

I totally agree. N ex is an x for a reason. But the x has changed. He became an x bc he wanted drugs n booze over me n his son. That was 12yrs ago. He is now clean n has been for 6yrs. He is stable now as well . so that is I guess what is bothering me. As for the current I know that is a project not a relationship. But for the time being its what is on my plate
