I have been watching how this new relationship of my friend has been affecting him and not in a good way. Our friendship is suffering and I see him hanging out with other people that I know are a bad influence on him. I decide that the friendship means too much to me and I make up my mind that I need to talk to him. I say to him, hey dude I know you really like this chick and you are having a great time with her and these new people you have been hanging out with, but we never hang out anymore. You’re always partying and some of these other people are real jerks. I’m just worried that you are heading in the wrong direction and this girl is going to get you into trouble. I just thought you should know because I really value our friendship and I miss hanging out with you. I just don’t want to see something bad happen to you.

I want to see my friend and I know that the only way to do it is to hang out with him and his new girlfriend and her friends.. One night I decide to go with them to a party, but what I did not anticipate was that there was no designated driver and I have been drinking as much as my friend and we are all stoned and trashed and I need to get home by my curfew.

We get in the car and the person driving the car is completely hammered. The music is loud and the driver is not paying attention to the road. There is a red light but the car doesn’t stop, instead goes through and hits another car. The car spins out of control and hits a telephone pole. I’m lucky – I wind up in a hospital for 2 weeks. My friend and his new girlfriend …. well, they didn’t make it.
