Question Posted Sunday November 21 2004, 7:28 pm

My friend moved out to Colorado a year ago. I'm 15/f and he was my best friend. Yesterday he told me he had sex for the first time. Which is totally different from when he lived here. He never would have done it. I understand that he changed because of the different people. I get that. But, its just the fact that sometimes, when I talk to him online, he's drunk. And alone. When he's sad, he tells me he WANTS to be drunk. I'm afraid I'm going to lose my best friend.
What should I do? Just get over it?

aww Im really sorry about your best friend. My best friend moved away about a year ago too. Shes totally different also. She started having sex with random guys & smoking & getting drunk, which was *totally* unlike her. I tried to talk to her & write her, but she stopped sending me letters back, so i just let it go, but I had talked to her about it, but i didnt really get any answer about it. I think you should try to talk to him about it, see how it goes. its a reallyyy hard thing to let go of though. its really sad, but sometimes you have to do it.

HyperactiveMiss answered Sunday November 21 2004, 7:55 pm:
People definitely change and moving doesn't help any. Your best friend seems to have changed a LOT. There's probably not much you can do for him. Maybe you can talk some sense into him and try to set him on the right track. Maybe you can call and talk to his parents or something. Otherwise, he's moved on now. Look on the bright side, at least you knew him while you did and you had your good memories. Even though friends don't last forever, you'll still always have good memories. Also, he's teaching you a valuable lesson...He's an example of what you shouldn't become.

If it's possible, you should meet him in person and talk to him face to face. It's always better, because you can't lose him. He can't run away when you're right there. Ask him what's wrong. Tell him you really care about him and you worry about him. If none of this works, please get him help and tell him to talk to someone. Maybe it's just his new neighborhood? Maybe he's just trying to fit in around there? Tell him that that's not important. You want his old-self back. He was so much better then. If he doesn't listen, again, get him help. I hope he straightens out a little, and you guys are back to where you were. Good luck.

lAteR :P

Well theres not much you can do for the kid. since he did move. You just probably need to talk to him while hes sober and tell him how much you really do care for him and that you think somethings going wrong and that he should hang out with a diff crowd or something. i'm sure hes just trying to fit in and thats the cool thing to do around there. If he gets upset with you then i dont know... because that might happen. Good luck and best wishes
