Friends and Drugs

[chaseter]

Find new friends...they are going no where in life and they will drag you down with them...especially if they keep getting further and further into more and more drugs.

I was in the exact same situation as you a few years ago. And, yeah, just find some new friends. You don't have to COMPLETELY ditch them. I see my "old" group once every month or so for a few hours and still talk to them via facebook. But I know what you mean. You just sit there with nothing to say because you simply can't relate. Same thing happened with this girl I was seeing. She was big into drinking and trying new drugs etc and I just broke it off because besides seeing a movie and going to eat every now and then there was nothing else we had in common. She was funny and I liked doing the little we did together but we really had 2 different worlds.

I've been hanging out with some people now for the past 2 years or so with interests very similar to me and it's great. It's great to be surrounded by people that like what you like and respect what you do. Makes life much happier.

Just leave your old friends while you still can. Don't give into what they're offering. And don't feel bad. When they hit 30 or so they'll ask, "Where the hell did my life go?".

Then again sometimes they don't. I think the more important thing is thinking about how much more money they'll have in their pockets without having to support such a dangerous, expensive habit.

Damn!! people still do LSD? Me drugs>We drugs

Well, It is serious hard to make new 'patnas' as an adult, I mean compared to introducin yourself to random cuties and ****es in the street it's not even close. I was in a similar spot years ago, several of the cats I was rollin w/ either became dealers or users, and that became one quick run up the street too many for me after a while.

I think eventually you will square out to them and it will disolve, or they grow out of it, but probably not too soon for you.

Do you think hanging out more in public places, like, going out to a bar or to play some pool or see a movie or whatever would decrease the likelihood of them using/talking about drugs when we're all together?

Doubtful. It sounds like it's becoming quite a focal point in their lives. Like everyone else said, get new friends.

Ask your friends for acid and ecstasy then send it to me. That way your friends will think your cool for privately experimenting and I'll think you're cool for sending me drugs.

It's a win-win.

LMAO . . . that's what I was thinking

I agree that you should do what you do, man . . . don't ever let somebody pressure you into something you don't want to do . . . I don't know if I'd necessarily say 'get new friends' . . . if they're really your 'friends', they'll continue being your friends with or w/o drugs . . .

20 is a common age to experiment with drugs, though . . . I sure know I was no exception at that point in my life . . . but I turned out okay . . . errrr, kinda
