Friend going in bad direction
Two of my best friends have been hanging out a lot over this summer because I've been away a little bit. However, one of the 2 friends (Holly) told me that the other friend (Jess) got wasted alot, and she has been sneaking out with this girl who is basically just bad news. I was really furious about this because everyone who hangs with this girl gets into big trouble. Me and Holly were really angry that Jess has been acting this way, but today I found out that Jess and Holly both got drunk last night and idk why, but i am really depressed about this. It seems like they are btoh changing, because we had always said we never needed drinks to have fun. Now I don't know what to do or say and I'm just really confused. Please give me some advice!

People change all the time and it sounds to me that they are being normal teenagers and experimenting with new things. I was one of those girls that got into trouble and everyone got mad at me for doing half the things i did. It's a faze and I think the best thing you can do is not to get mad at them or stop being their friend. They could have more then one good reason for this behavior, some people used drinking and rugs as an outlet or to get away from their problem. I think you should talk to them about it and be completly honest with them about your feelings. If they are truely your friends they wont get mad at you for voicing your consern.

People can change over night. There is nothing you can do about that but accept it. What they're doing isn't the best thing, but it's their lives and their decision. You're being a good friend though and worrying about them but just try to talk to them. Tell them you don't want them to get hurt or anything bad to happen to them. If they only drink a few times it doesn't mean they're different. People do things because they think it's fun and they want to expiriance it a few more times. They're always going to be your friends and if they don't want to stop drinking, that's on them but just don't let it end your friendship. You guys should be able to get through anything even if it takes a while.
