Your friends attitude-- you shouldnt have to deal with that. IF they get an attitude with you, just walk away. Its the best thing to do. They wont be mad at you .. and u dont have to put up with it!
The friend thats "mad"-- Talk to him! Theres isnt any other way to settle this. If you wont talk to him, then u most likely wont be friends. I'm pretty sure he cant read ur mind. If he thinks ur mad, let him know your not. There really isnt any other way to let him know ur not!! [ jeanine278972's advice column | Ask jeanine278972 A Question ]

Seriously. Sure you can tell them why, it's probably a good idea to do so. One day they'll realize that their "real" friends left them and hopefully that will be enough to make them change, but don't expect it to happen for a while.
My ex-boyfriend/fiancee was into drugs and so were his friends, I wasn't. After years of talking to him, hoping he'd quit, him promising to quit...I quit him. I broke everything off with him and haven't talked to him in two years. From what I hear from my friends is that he cleaned up his act, quit using drugs, got a better job, etc. I couln't be happier for him, but sometimes that's the price you have to pay.
Jane answered Wednesday November 24 2004, 12:29 pm: *Well, I think you should have a conversation with them about their drug usage. Tell your friends how it makes you feel and be sure to tell them the dangers of their actions. Driving while on drugs is definetly not good! Just let your friend know how much they mean to you and stuff. If they don't listen you might want to tell an adult..* [ Jane's advice column | Ask Jane A Question ]

Tell the 2nd friend that ure not mad at him. Ure not mad, but u might b upset that their ruining their lives w/ doing drugs. hope i helped! ~amc~ [ amcdragrad08's advice column | Ask amcdragrad08 A Question ]
