Thank you so much. It's good to know that someone can understand. And even relate.

My best friend, since 1994 moved from California to Nebraska, I understand how hard it is to say goodbye to someone you absolutly love and cherish. It's scary to think that you may never be friends with them again. And the guy I'm talking to moved to Arizona (I live in Cali) and he makes dumb desicions too, drinking, smoking, , driving under the influence, partying. I try to get him to stop because I'm worried about him, but he just won't. I just wanted you to know that you aren't totally alone in this situation.
And honestly, I think it's extremely mature what you did. First off, you made the choice not to talk to your friend anymore because she was making some bad choices. That's an extremely mature thing to do. You were able to sort out what's popular and "cool" from what's right. Your friend is probably going to need to take some time to mature a bit and realize that she's hurting herself by doing all this stuff. She's going to make mistakes, but she HAS to learn from them, and until she learnd from them she probably won't stop.
I think it's great that you told your mom. I know I'd be terrified to do that. It's even better that you let your mom tell her parents. That shows that you value your friends life and safety over your friendship, which is really difficult for most friends to do. Even though you knew that she probably wouldn't understand, you just didn't want her to get hurt and potentially ruin her life. That's very strong of you. I do understand why your friend is angry, she just doesn't understand that she's hurting herself. Give her some time to grow up, hopefully then she will realize that she isn't making the smartest choices. The only thing that you really can do is give her time.
You did the right thing by telling her parents. You behaved maturely and you remained strong with your decison, and I respect that. You did what a true friend would do.
