How do I ditch my worthless friends?

Question by Tom: How do I ditch my worthless friends?
After living in this town for 2 years, I’ve made a small circle of friends who, at first, seemed cool. They’re the same age as me (which is great because at first the only people I knew were teenage stoners who were incredibly shallow) and I prefer to socialise with people on my level. They helped me move into my new place when I moved out of a housing association (definition: drugs den) and we have also met up quite regularly in recent times. I’ve learnt a great deal of social skills- ie to sit up straight, smile, look confident, things I kinda missed out in an earlier whirl of teenage drug abuse.

But the thing is, they’re just drink+drug buddies. They just use me for a bit of money and when they’ve got no-one else to hang out with. And now I’m p*ssed cos money went missing from my room when I let them crash after a stupid drinking session. Plus they’re bringing me down back into my old ways. I’ve had enough of these spongers with no lives. What’s the best way to rid these morons?!
