She was sent back home for bad behavior, being disrespectful to her host family, and smoking. He claims to be in love with her but this really upsets me because he now he dips and drinks. He still talks to me but I want him to know that this is toxic!! Can I get him to see that she's leaving anyway and he needs to end this? Reply to this Question Share |

Hun are you worried about this girl coming back because you have feelings for your friend?
i mean yeah ok she smokes and he dips and stuff but isn't it his life?
obviously you care alot about him but you need to let him learn from his own mistakes and just be there when he realises what's going on.
i mean from what you've said i think you maybe like him a bit more than just a friend and see this girl as nothing but bad for him...
i mean he is actually with this girl and he needs to just see what happens. If in the end it turns out bad then he'll just have to deal with the mistakes he made and learn from them even though you're trying to tell him.
But sometimes friends whom are in love never see the real truth about that person only other people around them do.
you just need to let it run it's course and when it does just be a friend to him there isn't much else you can do for now.
hope this helps and best of luck :)
