I have never liked him, he is a smoker and a druggie, not to mention he is one of the meanest people I have ever had the displeasure to meet! But today I found out that now he has no friends at all. I feel really sorry for him and I want to do something about it but my friends say to leave it "he has brought this upon himself". But I still want to help. Am I too nice?

well I think that you should tell him that he is mean and if he wants to keep the only friend he has left he should treat you with a bit more respect! But be careful how you tell him. There must be a reason why he is like he is, but still you have to get the message across to him.

You can give advice but he is the one who has to take action, not you. People who do drug, also are expert liars. Good luck God bless

Pity is the natural reaction, but be careful of this guy. You say he has no friends, but how does he get drugs without having connections? How can you be sure he just doesn't want sympathy and puts up an illusion to disarm people he can take advantage of. In school, I hung out in the bad crowd with people who had this mentality. It's cool of you to want to be nice, but guard yourself and don't be fooled. If it was me, I'd leave him alone. You know he's mean and was not kind to your friends, why risk yourself for him? He has issues, and until he works through them on his own, he is gonna be messed. Watch yourself, or better yet, stay away.
