No... Its not.


That'd be like me having a bag of oxy's and saying its 'just in case I get hurt'..

Its also not the same as quitting smoking and carrying a pack of cigarettes around.

He bought the bottle intending to drink it. Obviously he hadn't yet, but he didnt buy it to look at.

well i talked to him, he bought it because he had a bad day, didnt drink any of it and told me that there's not a damn thing i can do to stop him from drinking and it pretty much all falls on him which i understand. i told him i'm a phone call away if he needs to talk (i was at work at the time). and i drank the whiskey and just to show him i mean buisness i went to his brothers house and smoked his brothers weed. all in all it was a good talk, at least from my perspective.

That's not even close to what I said or implied.

It's not anything like a bag of oxy's...that doesn't even make sense. I only asked if he may have bought it for someone else as a gift...it is the holiday season you know.

The last post explained it so we all now know but we didn't at the time of my post.

Who said it was anything like a pack of cigs laying around ? I've bought bottles of whiskey for gifts and received them but not a pack of cigs or a bag of oxy's.

Definitely not 'just because' and I didn't suggest that and I agree.

The gift part...well I've seen it done. I've been given bourbon by people that don't drink but used to and at least one of them had a major problem at one time. It wasn't someone I hang out with but a coworker and they knew I liked Wild Turkey and they bought me a bottle of 108 proof Rare Breed barrel proof Wild Turkey. I didn't drink it around them of course since I only see them at work...especially since I carry a handgun and drive VIP's as part of my job.

But, I bet he's been sober a long time and has learned to deal with it in better ways. Sounds like, in this case, the guy is very recently clean. Addiction never goes away, but it gets better with time. I doubt your friend was buying bottles for family straight out of detox.

the fact that he didn't drink it should make him very proud of himself

and maybe at some point he'll get to where he won't even buy it to begin with.

it's good that you weren't a dick to him without finding out what happened.
