Remarkably enough I've lived 60 years in large urban areas, including my teenage and young 20s years in the coke-fueled late 70s through mid 80s and I've been offered coke exactly once.
Hang out with better people, and you'll date better people.
I don't know what other advice to give you, you seem to need a lot of it and you hear but you don't listen.

I dont think she was saying it was unavoidable to use coke but that it's unavoidable to run into/know/meet people that have used coke. It's super common, or was in my partying days. If you're at a club at midnight and then onto after hour parties at 2-3 am it's likely there. (Though other drugs might have replaced it nowadays.)
People in general really underestimate drug use. I remember when my last state legalized weed there were so many people saying they don't know people that use it, why are we doing this, etc. And now there are so many dispensaries that some towns have three different ones within a couple of blocks of each other all being super busy and bringing in big $$.
Personally, I'm glad that's in the rear view mirror for me at this time and has been for a couple of decades, but now it's hard to stay up past 1am. Tonight in NY I'll likely have to take a 5 hr energy drink to keep up and going to the end of the night.
If he is on that list then perhaps it would clarify things for you.
Brokers aren't salespersons FYI, and many non-brokers do very well. A broker is someone who owns the agency and has salespeople working for them (where the broker handles the back-end, administrative elements of the transaction, and the salesperson does all the direct communication with buyer/seller), though brokers often dual-act as salespeople in order to get both cuts of the commission.

I know that.... but if he was listed as a broker.. chances are that he is doing very well and probably explains away his expenses. I broker information, just like business ownership, is often public information while employee of such businesses are not. So it is a resource no more no less.
Rabbit gave the best advice in regard to that, hang around better people.
Jeez! You do realize you’re implying that people who’ve just merely tried the drug once are a bad crowd? There’s nothing wrong with experimenting. A little less judgement folks!
I’d also go as far to say as Bebe’s statement is probably accurate for the majority of the people on these forums, they’re just not aware of it. Most people don’t talk openly about their drug use.
None of this is to say she should continue seeing this guy. He sounds like a real addict and she should steer clear of him, because it’s no fun being involved with someone who has an addiction whether it’s casual or serious.

I think you just arent being honest here, and maybe projecting a little. I never said anyone doing drugs was bad, or trying them was bad. If you take 2 people, one drug free and 1 who has tried drugs, one could be considered better than the other, doesnt make either one of them "bad", just one better than the other. Military acceptance/recruitment is one example.
Bebe has said before she wanted to be married, dating casually isnt the right way to go about it.

This is your personal opinion but there are others. Some may be based on experience. Maybe a bracelet with the engraving "casual" when the proverbial happens?
