So i feel like im loosing my friends i have currently. I have these other friends who i am getting kind of close to. And i made new friends who are friends of my friends. Now two of the people im getting close to I've known since i was a little girl. These friends arent the best, they smoke, they drink, its all about sex. Im not saying i dont drink but i only do it ocassionally. I really would love to hang out with thme because they are real friends, they stick up for me & listen & help me out. But im not up for the whole partying thing, thats basically all they do & know. I would have no problem going to a party, but i just dont get it. I dont know what to do. should i still be friends with them, should i dump them as friends and get different ones, should i talk to them about it? i dont know. any help would be nice.
You don't want to be a party girl? Don't hang out with party girls. They go to partys and party hardy. I'm not saying shun them or cut them off; love them where they're at. But be build quality relationships with people you look up to. People who either have what you want in your life, or have the same wants and desires as you do.

They may be your real friends but if partying and drinking and such is all there life, they aren't gonna go very far and successful with their life. You can still be friends with them but you don't have to dump them like that. Just don't hang around them that much and find some friends that appreciate who you are (not that they don't) and are good influences. You can say hi and such to them but find some good close friends. You know what I mean? Like don't be mean to them and if they ask anything about you not hanging out with them anymore just say that you aren't really into partying alot. And if they accept you because of that, thats when you dump them. But I hope everything works out for you. [ kiran's advice column | Ask kiran A Question ]
