Helping a friend

I have a friend, who is a guy, and I love him so much. We dated for a while, but he kept leaving me for other girls. He does a lot of pills and a lot of drinking. And he told me that he had a lot of feelings for me but he doesn’t want to be with me right now because he wants to get his head on straight before we try to be together again. How can I get him to straighten up without smothering him?

Answer #2

I think you shouldn’t be like bothering him every second of everyday but you should be there for him and make sure he knows that. Try and help him stop doing those things because you are worried about him not just because it means you can go out with him. If he wants to go to meetings or something volunteer to go with him for support. Don’t keep asking him about it just be there and be a good friend for now. Being there for him now will help strengthen your relationship in the long run.

Answer #3

He needs professional help! If he doesnt acknowledge he has a problem, then there isnt anything you can do.

I think hes telling you what you want to hear being he knows how you feel about him. but this throws up one huge red flag…We dated for a while, but he kept leaving me for other girls.>>I really think he has friend feelings for you, and nothing more.
