Some people tell me that i need to lighten up. I am a strong willed person when i need to be. I don't cover coat anything. I tell people that this is how it is and that is life. Get over it. I raise my son that there is no next time. Do it right the first time. I don't hide reality from my child. And "this is how life is' get over it" aspect of life. If you get drunk and can drive home, I guess you are walking, you should have thought about it before having so many drinks that you can not get yourself home. I won't bail someone outof jail, shoudn't have done what put you there in the first place. The common sence situationS. My boyfriend has this friend that likes to get drunk evrey chance he gets, evrn at work. Last week his friend got drunk at work and my BF was going to drive him home, but asked to bring him here. I wasn't pleased, but I let him come over. I told him that his friend needs to grow up. If he gets so drunk he can't drive home because he wanted to drink, AT WORK, he should learn to walk home. I would have walked away. This man drinks every night, and gets so drunk every night that he has been kicked out of bars, girlfriends don't want anything to do with him, and he is a boligerant a@@. He thinks he is still in collage. My BF thinks I am mean, and my BF is always quick to make an excuse for his friends drunken, boligerant behavior, " his has cancer, his girlfriend left him". STOP DRINKING AND YOUR GIRLFRIEND WOULDNT LEAVE. And, "DRINKING DOESN'T MAKE THAT CANCER ANY BETTER". I want to get in his friends face and tell him to get over it. I am sick to but you don't see me covering it up with beer every night. I am trying to not let his issues stress me out, but sometimes he has no selce of reality. Is it a man thing? Or, am i a jerk?
