Problem with friends...

[PurdeeGem]

A friend isn't a friend if they ever make you feel uncomfy. Continue to watch how they are around you. If you think you'd like to continue to be friends with them, it's fine. But remember to place what you prefer on top of friends.

well...
hmmm this is a hard one...
umm..tell them that its bad for them and it changes who they are..
and i guess if you really talk to them and they are really close friends they'll listen...
because its really a matter of deciding what is more important to them..weed and alcohol or you...
and if they pick drugs then you dont really wanna be around them anyways and they werent good friends to begin with....

every individual has its owned way of thinking.. saying that word "mentally weak" is quite strong ....I mean we can not say if our way of helping them is the same way as they would perceive it.... maybe because they are already feeling the tightening of the noose.... from the family, school, work or to the people around them.... Even though if our intention to them is purely for their own sake we can not help it if they have that way of thinking.... being friends with them for 5 years does not mean we knew them that much... even long time friends could be in trouble because of a simple spat.... all I could say is let's be friends to them.. let's try to listen to their woes.... their worries.... it does not mean that we do nothing.... we're just trying to be sensitive....

i would confront your friend first b4 telling his parents..
if he was a true friend then he would listen to you and stop...if he doesn't stop then tell his parents... but i would give him a few days b4 letting the adults know..

but the decision is up to you.. its a choice you have too make whether you remain friends or lose one..

don't bail on your friends just because they went experimenting, stick with them and advise them otherwise. be the voice of reason in the group. However, if they continue this kind of behaviour and pay absolutely no heed to you, then you do what you have to do and don't let them drag you down with them.
if it's serious then you should tell their parents. i mean you care about your friends and weed is an addiction and a killer right?
