So I worked with this one girl for about 4 years at a local grocery store. She was 4 years older than me (I was 17 when I first started) and she thought that me skateboarding and dying my hair and all that was so awesome she literally was one of my biggest fans. Well she used to buy me beer and all that when I wasn't 21 and she always invited me over to her place to hang out, play XBOX, drink etc.. She has a son who has to be around 8 or 9 now and stayed with her son's dad (they never married) and wow was that guy a jerk. She had it rough with him he wasn't the biggest guy around and would occassionally hit her. Now I did stand up a few times but after awhile I said to myself "well why does she keep going back?". Then here comes the WTF moment. One night when I was over (it was just her there) she told me about how she always liked me and was happy around me but there was something that I should know. I didn't know what to expect so she sets down here drink and says "well the reason why I am still with HIM is that well I got into some bad, bad things. I replied with the usual "huh?" and then she said "I used to do ALOT of pills and well I ended up shooting up and had to go to rehab a few times and the reason why he hits me is because he keeps finding my oxy's" I was like wow I am so glad I never even so much as kissed her (not that she wasn't bad looking, but needles = disease MOST, not all, of the time. I was freaked out but told her I was proud that she went to rehab and didn't shoot up (I knew she still did pills but I figured it was a few vicodin or something else relatively weaker than oxycontin.) and we went on to have more drinks then I left and went home. I continued to know her through work, though I stopped hanging out with her, until I got a full time big boy job and moved on with my life. It must have been at least 5 years since I have seen her. Last Monday I get a call from another girl that we had both worked with (I kept in better touch with her, but only as a friend). I answer the phone like "wow hey Mandy what's going on I haven't heard from you in awhile?" to which she replies "well Mark, I just read in the newspaper that Bonnie died two days ago. She got out of a rehab clinic about two weeks ago and was found by her parents on her bed dead. They are saying that the cause of death is a heart attack but I'm not soo sure, she only did downers not uppers but with how much she used to do and how much she smoked who knows what really happened. Yeah its making me sad for her son, for not beating the crap out of her boyfriend (drugs or not you don't hit a girl) and for losing contact with her (which was really weird because I got into a conversation with someone about her about two months ago). But I do not not feel that bad for her I mean we all choose our own paths right? I didn't want anything bad to ever happen to her but it did and well it was her
fault, her choice. Am I cold hearted or realistic? Well that is my rant everyone.


Lesson learned - Yes drugs can kill you and ruin your life.

Let's try to keep the name-calling and insults out of the discussion, please. And, unlike some other posts, this one has actual discussion in it, which is why it's remained open.
