Would this risk my nursing career?

[Fallen_embers]

Hello everyone, hope all is doing well.I would like to seek further guidance about a situation I have found myself in.I am in 4th semester of my nursing program and I have been dating my significant other for the past year. Recently he has invited me to hang out with his friends at a Rave party where there will be Molly involved. I denied the invitation due to my fear of tainting my name as a nursing student. My concern is, what are the legal risks in California involved for a nursing student/R.N to date a former drug user who is revisiting such drugs, even if my drug screen is tested clean? Any insight is much appreciated.

He's a drug user. You, theoretically at least, know better. A drug user is a poor candidate for husband/father material. Dump him. If he stops using, and if you're still interested you can revisit the dating. But for now, it's a bad idea.

What do you think? Why do we hear the saying, "You are known by the company you keep" so often? How many times do people get caught up in legal problems when the person they are with gets arrested and drugs are in the vicinity. Common sense tells one to decrease any risks by staying away from the situation. Why don't you seek out those who don't engage in this behavior?
