my friend is a bad influence and she's screwing her life up can i help or is it too late?
my ex-bestfriend was a really clean happy go lucky person.
i'll call her life guard (long story for her nickname)
but now she's gotten into drinking with 16,17, and 18 year olds and she's only 14.
she tells everyone she doesn't have sex but no one believes her.
cuz she's admitted to it before.
she used to cut.
and at one point helped me quit cutting.
but i think she's back into it again.
she's a beautiful person just in the wrong croud.
we don't talk much after the boy issues we went threw.
so please help me.

i completely know how you feel. not exactly, but i sort of have that same situation with my cousin and she got mad mat me and started saying stuff to try to turn my family on me. so we're not talking right now. but first thing's first, if you plan to confront her, you need to think of a way to let her know how you feel without offending her. which i have to admit is going to be difficult. it also really helps to pray. personally, i know it may be hard if you're not religious, but i've prayed to Saint Judas and it has really helped. =] i would strongly recommend it. i should tell you this though: "you can't help someone unless they're willing to help themselves first".. everyone always said that about one of my aunts and i see now that it was very true since she didn't want to stop smoking and now she's long gone. but at least, she's resting in peace. i just hope it's not too late for your friend to realize her mistakes and that she's willing to let you help her. =] hope i've helped.
