How do I help my "friend"

sounds like your friend is one of “those” people. You know the kind of people who expect the world to give them a break as though the world owes them something. The kind of people who blame everyone else for their problems. And the kind of people who don’t take advantage of opporunities when they come knocking because they know it might take a little bit of work.

If he wants to sell drugs, then he is just looking for an easy way out.

If he really wanted to be somebody, he would be somebody despite the fact that his family hates him and he has no friends. (by the way you need tons of friends in order to sell drugs… it is important to have good connections because you don’t want strangers coming up to buy drugs, they could be cops… so it doesn’t sound like he would be good at dealing)

He’s “feeling sorry for himself” and that’s not going to get him anywhere… take a step back and look at how much he actually thrives off of your pity for him, and you will see that I’m right. He is basically asking for a handout, and you’re the doop that is giving him what he wants at this moment in time.

He needs a kick in the head and a reality check, or else he’s not going to change.
