What makes a good friend is having your friend's best interest in mind. If this friend isn't willing to realize how unhealthy of a lifestyle this is for them, then as a friend you have to help them realize it. Sometimes we need to tell when the act can hurt, damage or cause harm of any kind to all involved. \n\nYou did the right thing, however, tell his/her parents....The friend may be upset at first, but if they are a good friend to you, then they will be happy you helped them.\n\nGood luck...............

You can't tell people something they are not ready to hear. You are probably right and she probably knows it on some level. When dealing with friends you are always taking a chance when bringing up an issue like that, that you will upset them. You did it, now give her time to calm down, then let her know you only want the best for her because you care about her but your friendship is important to you so you won't bring it up again if she doesn't want you to.

definatly tell her, you'll regret it if you dont, trust me i know from experiance. your friends will eventualy get over it even if they do harrass you for a while.

I know you already feel awful about the situation so i won't tell you how wrong you are.  Too late now anyway.  Personally, I wouldn't tell her.  She is definitely gonna be mad as heck and the friendship is gonna be over.  If you don't care about that-then tell her.  If you do care ask God to forgive you, keep your mouth shut and NEVER DO IT AGAIN!

You really need to fess up before all of this gets back to him.  It could destroy whatever could be.  Tell your friends the truth...that it was a dream but you wanted it to be true so badly that you neglected to mention the fact that it was only a dream.  You will feel better for setting the record straight and they will be glad you were honest with them.  Don't be surprised if you take some major teasing about it though.  And, I am glad you learned a lesson from it...lies or exaggerations alwasy come back to bite you on the butt.  The truth will set you free!\n\nGood luck!

would any of your friends lie to you or would they tell you the truth if the problem was switched around. what would you want the truth or a lie. \n\n\nyeah it may hurt you and them but it is better if its now and not later because if you hold you peace and she finds out later then she will never trues you again if she finds out that you knew about it. if you don't tell your risking your friendship, and if you tell the only thing will happen is that they may get upset, but in time they will thank you for being honest. i know that its not easy and it wont get any easier i wish i could tell you that it will but that will be lying.

Forget about it.  You did nothing wrong.  Don't even mention it.  All you'll do is put your friend in an embarrassing situation.

as she's your friend, you should'nt lie to her. once you lie, you have to cover it up with a bigger lie and you'll soon get into trouble.

is there any reason to tell him other than to just get it off of your chest? if there is no way he is ever going to find out about it, then dont tell him. Even if it happened a long time ago, he could still feel betrayed. like i said. he has all the right to be pissed if you told him already. but if you guys are good friends you will be able to forget about it over a couple cases of beer.

I dunno about pain killers, but I was addicted to meth for years, and I kept it a secret from everyone too. That is a big mistake. Once you tell someone and you have their support it is so much easier to beat. Don't do it alone. Yeah, telling my boyfriend was scary, but not as scary as killing myself. Get them to go with you to get medical attention. It takes a lot of weight off your shoulders. (but don't put it on theirs!) It feels wicked good to be honest. And just remember even if things suck for you now, it'll get better. Good luck! You rock!

You should tell everyone what really happened. your real friends and family will believe you. But let the friend off the hook too. i mean, he is your freind, right?

If you consider yourself a true friend to them, you definitely need to discuss it.  Depending on what the drug of their choice is, you might want to be armed with some facts about the dangers and consequences of that drug.  Stress that you care about them and don't want to see them continuing down the wrong path!!

You need to tell her again how you feel about doing drugs. And if she still doesn't listen then you need to get rid of her. Tell her that if she decides to stop this stuff and get help then maybe you two could get back together. She's only going to bring you down if you continue to be w/ her. Possibly give her an ultimatum. . .tell her that if she doesn't get help then you two can't be together at all not even as friends. You don't need to be around this sort of thing, because your making wise decisions by staying away from that mess. Give her some facts about drug and alcohol abuse also when you have this talk, maybe if she here's the facts from someone who cares she'll want to change. Good luck buddy I hope things work out well for you.

The only thing I can say is she wasnt a friend to start with. And that dont worry about others  they have to answer for the things they do not you. Just move on and dont show any emotion about it. There is a saying what comes around goes around and sooner or later she will have someone do to her what she did to you.

It is not too late to report it, the evidence may be all gone but you can still report it, if yu told anyone like a close friend will help and sometimes the things that det. day to guys will get them to totally break down. If you don't you will remain a victim of your own circumstances. Be strong and don't let them keep you down.

I would say its a bad idea. If this person is your friend then going after someone they were with is just bad karma. The best thing I can suggest is to talk to her and tell her how you feel.

That is a really tough one... hm... I have a friend like that too, and I kinda just let it go. Maybe next time they bring something up like that, you can change the subject. Like if they say something like "I am so cool!!!!!" you can say "Speaking of cool... wasn't it cold last night?"... you know, really silly things, like take something from their sentence and say something that has to do with it. \nHowever, if they get mad just tell them the truth. Be like "I'm sorry, but you just made me feel like I was lower than you. You know? Like you are better than me." Just be honest (but throwing in a little guilt trick won't hurt) They might get mad, but eventually someone is going to tell them, and they aren't going to be nice about it. So take the chance that you have now, and just be honest with your friend. I have a pretty good feeling it will work out. Good luck! :)
