WOW- Even though this is a 4-yr-old thread (weird), here are my 2cents....
Honestly, I've been in this situation (as in yours) multiple times (why do they come to me?) Anyways-
He is the type that no matter what you do or say (for that matter anyone) he WILL NOT listen.
What I've learned that works:
A- Tough love - don't hang out with him if you don't prefer what he does. Tell him that you're not interested in hearing how much he consumed the night before. Be straight up.
B- Let the karma flow. Unfortunately, something needs to slap him in the face for him to realize what he's doing is bad for him. A DUI, an accident (god forbid), etc. People like this need to learn their lesson somehow- and even though the hardest ways are the best ways, that's the only way he will learn. IF he even cares. i'm sure there's plenty of people who get DUI after DUI, have gotten in accidents, gotten busted with drugs, etc. yet it still doesn't phase them and they keep repeating their habits til the day they die.
