can i ask someone a few questions?
what do you do when one of your best friends almost-boyfriends who youve known for a while goes to a drinking party and gets drunk so bad that he goes to the hospital for alcohol poisoning?
how do you comfort your friend, who keeps thinking she couyld have stopped him?
what do you say when she tells you that he asked her to come with, but she said no?
and how do you answer to the detail that he was already so drunk beforehand that he made out with this lesbian chick (who was also drunk) in front of his almost-girlfriend?
and how do you respond when you're told that she broke up with her girlfriend that night?
finally, how does almost the same exact thing happen to your other friend (minus the drunk part), whose love interest decided to go make out w/ her friend who also was a lesbian?
(on a side note, this love interest was the same kid who gave my drunk friend the mixed alcohol. according to my sources, the weakest thing in that stuff was vodka.
[on another side note, i wouldnt trust this kid if he gave me a pencil, nevermind some sort of alcohol.....])
shittiest night of my life, right there. all in one night. ONE NIGHT!
i dont think im looking for pity and for everyone to say, oh shes got so many problems, cause i really dont.
theyre not my absolute best friends, these kids.
but i dont know how to comfort my friends who know them better, the ones who were up puking last night and crying their hearts out because he promised her that he knew his limit and wouldnt get into trouble, and she believed him.
and what do i do about the innocent bystander who was dragged into driving this kid to his house, when they barely know each other? why did his car have to be the one to get puke all over it?
god, i hate being a teenager. why cant everyone just grow up and stop being idiotic about shit like this?
some one please respond. just because its easier to talk to someone you dont know sometimes. and sometimes you need random strangers to care, to feel like it matters at all.

There is so much involved with this, I really have no clue what to say. As for your friend, I would try to comfort her the best you can. I can't tell you how to do it, I've never been put in a situation like this.
I'm really sorry I couldn't be of anymore help. I hope things look up for you and your friends. And hopefully that kid will be doing better.
All i can say is be there for your friend to show her support and be a shoulder to lean on....once things die down maybe she will be able to get a better perspective on the whoole thing and think with a clearer head!
Good luck!
his mom said that he was going to but he never did
and were all much better now
its not individually a really big problem, for one reason or another,
but all on the same day ws just too much for my friends and i
so yeah, parts of the problem are getting solved one by one and we visited the kid today and he was all better and promised to stop the drinking as much as he could.
course, i dont believe him really, but we'll see
and thanks for your support, it means a lot that others actually care.
most people seem to be ok with this kind of thing, and it pisses me off. majorly. even my mom wasn't surprised by it when i told her. her first reaction to the fact that he even drank was "This is common w/ 50 - 75% of teenagers today, meg."
yeah, its sad. not that im against undreage drinking all THAT much, its just kinda sickening when good kids dont care when others go get drunk, cause they're off doing exactly the same thing but being smarter about it and keeping it quiet.
bleh, i hate being in high school and having to deal w/ shite like this.
I am. I don't really deal with that at all very much. Except, wait no. I don't do that on the weekend. Bakers square is a good alternative to drinking.
