Dear Care and Feeding: This doesn’t seem healthy.
My husband and I are good friends with another couple that has always liked to have a few drinks. We are nowhere near the drinkers they are but we’ll indulge a little when we are out with them. Recently, however, “a few drinks” has turned into way more. When we make a plan to go out to dinner, they often come from another restaurant or bar before we meet, so they are several drinks in already.
Is there any way to keep the friendship short of pretending?Your friends need to hear the truth about their behavior, how it’s impacting them, and how it’s harming your friendship. They have taken on some potentially dangerous habits and considering your background, it’s particularly difficult for you to sit back and watch them self-harm. However, it’s likely that they will push back against you and be defensive. The friendship may also be affected if you speak up.
