-broke into cars for coke cash that got K in trouble with the law

Right now he sais that he only smokes weed and is giving up fast money and other drugs and has stopped for awhile.

That's the other side of the story. Sais he's stopped everything. Is this to be believed? I don't know what to do. Should I hang with him alot to kinda support him? I need some help here.

To be honest, it doesn't matter if you believe him or not. I would avoid hanging out with him in sketchy situations. I wouldn't even smoke weed with him or drink with him. Not to sound corny, but if he's getting off of all that shit he is more likely to get back on it if he's drunk or high.
If I was in your shoes, I'd keep a distance but not yell at him or tell him to fuck off. Just don't hang out with him in person as much. The last thing you want to do is be caught with him when he gets busted for something and you are there with weed on you.
Let him sort out his life on his own. He's a big boy now.

I know but he's still my friend. I don't wanna watch him ruin his life or just abandon him. If he did start up again he probably wouldn't do it around me but with his other friends who do it with him so I probably won't get arrested for anything other than weed or shrooms with him. I'm not too big on the idea of abandoning my friends even if they are big boys.

Ive seen alot of people crash like this. You become what you hang out with.

I've heard that before and I doubt I will. I got an ok future that includes college and a bunch of straight friends. He's really my only friend that was that messed up.

Is this your friend?

Just walk away from the whole thing. You are going to do it eventually and you might as well get it over with. The best thing you can do for yourself and your friend is telling them to fuck off and get back to you when they have their lives together.

Serious question: How old are you? The reason I ask is because if you are young, you'll realize that you'll eventually be leaving a lot of your friends behind. I used to think, "Oh we'll be friends forever", but that is never true. I barely speak to anyone from high school and don't really talk to my best friends from college anymore. Most people grow on and do other things. It's nothing personal. When I see these people, there are no "ill feelings". We are all grown up now.
Do you really want advice at all or is this strictly venting? What are you open to do? It seems like you aren't really open to do anything. Have you ever watched intervention? Even if you don't do drugs with him or around him, it's still best to cut off contact. It's a way of "punishing" him to make him get help or quit. Call it what you will, but it's the best thing you can do for him.
Also, it seems like your lifestyle isn't much better. I don't have a huge problem with people smoking week, doing shrooms, etc., but it I would have a problem with any of my friends doing it around someone who is supposed to be quitting another drug. Also, you should have a problem getting busted with weed or shrooms. It will fuck up your job prospects in the future. I'm not trying to say this in a dick way, but you need to grow up a little and mature.

He’s a full patch member of HA and a hype? I find that hard to believe they use to have rules against hype’s. He might be dealing for some of them but not a patch holder.



TS - Too bad about your friend I have lost some to drugs but only they can really help themselves.
