Would your estimation of that person drastically fall or would you think of them in much the same way?

LOL, There seems to be bi-polar opinions here.
Either all drug users are worthless, braindead, suicidal f*** ups with no respect for anyone or themselves.
Or they just need some understanding and nurturing and love and really aren't bad people at all.
How strange.

If they had just experimented, then no, I would not be judgemental about it. However, if they were currently hooked, my judgement might change

Getting into a relationship with someone who took drugs is like asking to be arrested yourself. All it takes is them "accidently" leaving drugs, or the tools needed to use it, at your house or other properity of yours and the police can arrest you for it.
Or if they really get ticked at you, leaving some stuff there then calling the police on you. Which leaves you high and dry there.
Personally, I'd steer very clear of this person. You don't want the hassles that come with someone being an addict. They will steal from you if they get deperate enough. My late husband was alcoholic and I didn't know it before we were married. All this came out afterwards and we were in our own apt. He would lie, steal money from my pocketbook, and hide the alcohol around the house and get violent if I questioned him abouty it. It's pretty much the same with other drugs also.

If they had lied to you about not being on drugs then human nature would react to that in a negative way. I would think "what else are they lying about and can I trust what they say"? If I knew that they were on drugs and was comfortable with that fact when I got into a relationship with them then it would be my decision to stay with them regardless. As the surviving sister of a drug addict who overdosed on heroine I can say that it is not cool or fun or clever. For those witnessing the results it only ever becomes more and more tragic and drepressing to watch them deteriate. Either way I would judge them, but it would depend on the circumstances.

My estimation of them would drop to a zero. I for one would not like to know my daughter is hanging around with a druggie.When you are under the influence of drugs you have no control over your mind and that is worrying. I have had enough experience living with a step-brother with an higher than normal IQ who has not had ajob in years because of his drug-abuse. I would advise them to get help and if not then refrain from being their friend. Drug-abusers know how to work their way around people, sly and steal a lot.

I won't judge them, but talk to them with love about the dangers in drugs, at the same time be very careful about that relationship so as not be a victim of drugs too.

I wouldn't judge them, but i would have to confront them about it if they weren't the source. Then I'd find out if it was a hardcore addiction that they were fighting, or if they were just enjoying the ride. A person with an addiction like that needs the support, but if they weren't fighting the addiction or willing to change that problem, I couldn't see myself staying with them for any longer than a one night stand, if that.

No, I would not judge them I would try to help them get off the drugs, but if they continued to do so I would have to just be there friend but still help them.

Clearly a person doing drugs doesn't care about themselves. They've found this is the only way to cope with life...how immature. Anybody who can't face life head on is not worth keeping around.

Yep . You can think or feel the same way about a person after you find out that he was hiding something from you .

That all depends what kind of drugs you're talking about. If it was the odd joint I wouldn't mind at all. Anything else I would stop seeing them.

yes... unfortuantely it will fall. If a person has AIDS or Hipatitus B and asks for support, you should not deny them and so will do I. But if I learn that BF is a drug addict, I will break-up with him. First of all it is too difficult to deal with drug addicts - when under effect of a drug they are inadequate, moreover, one will be always in fear that BF or GF will be infected! My esteem of that person will fall down immediately and I don't think I'll communicate with these people for longer...
