What if he starts using even more drugs?
There is this lad who I “like”, and right now we are really good friends. I think he’s ruining his life because he smokes. I went out with him a couple of times, but we ended up splitting up more or less straight away because he just wanted to stay friends.
I would like to be more with him but he doesn’t want to. He is in to drugs, and when he is high he flirts with me, but when he is not high he doesn’t really like me. I don’t even think he really likes me as a friend. It’s really upsetting me because he has changed over the past few months because of the drugs. I want to help him but I don’t know how I can…
I think our friendship is at risk… What if he starts using even more drugs?
Drug addicts, or any kind of addicts are selfish people!
If he’s ruining his life, and you want to help him as a friend — fine! That’s very noble of you. Friends helping friends is at the top of the list when it comes to the job description for the title ‘Friend’.
However, it’s not easy to help someone beat a severe drug addiction. It often requires professional intervention. You won’t probably be able to do anything by yourself… If you truly are concerned, and you truly are a friend — you need to rally his family and friends to get him help that will make a difference.
Then again, if you are a lost puppy having some kind of romantic idea of being a saviour and a future lover… Sit idly in your wet panties and watch him destroy himself.
