Today, at my first AA meeting, my best friend thought it would be funny to burst in drunk and tell everyone that I was the champion at beer pong and that there was a party at my place after my "quitter club" ended. FML

Hey, OP here. I appreciate all of the positive comments, and, not going to lie, he's been my friend since birth and it did kind of make me laugh when he first did it. But when he did sober up, I he apologized and cried, asking for help. So he'll be joining me next week and I'm very excited to get my best friend back. Again, thank you guys for the positive comments.

Well he definitely will not be proud of himself when he sobers up. I sincerely hope, anyways.

I would hope they're not your best friend anymore? I would think a friend would be supportive of you trying to improve your lifestyle, not ruin your attempts.

I hate to say it but if you want to be successful in your sobriety you need to distance yourself from this friend and any friend like them. I speak from a place of experience here. You must drop the people from your life that are part of the enabling mechanisms. You will hear over time the stories of fellow addicts, many of them will tell similar stories of relapse and failed attempts at sobriety until they removed these types of people from your life. If nothing else you'll need to get away from them until you have some real time in your sobriety. By then you may find you have no desire to continue those relationships; opting instead to have sobriety supporting friends. Congratulations on your sobriety, take it one day at a time!

What kind of "best friend" would joke about you trying to change your life around?? Keep up the good work OP!

**** that guy! Move on brother. Your health is more important than garbage humor. Shoot, maybe he needs to wake up as well...

Am I the only one who thought that it was a little funny...? Anyone...? No? Okay.

No, it really isn't funny. Not even slightly.

Thats a risky prank there. If not quite drunk enough it could be very awkward

I'm sure it was uncomfortably awkward for OP and others. That friend's a dbag.

I'm curious. Are you the beer pong champion?
