I used to be very close friends with this person and we had lots of good times together, but I cut them off last autumn because they were toxic and manipulative. The "break-up" was messy at the time but we're civil nowadays even though we don't talk.

They have been smoking weed for the better part of a year now and it is illegal where I live. They tried to sell some to me as well while we were both underage last summer, and I am 99% sure they are currently selling to kids at our high school (I have heard these interactions). I am 100% sure they smoke regularly, and they have come to school high a few times as well as smoked outside during our breaks.

This person barely comes to school (1-3h a day even though they would have an 8h day) and often just disturbs the class if they are there. Though we aren't acquainted anymore I still know a lot about the severe mental health issues this person has because of how close we were earlier; they are becoming worse and worse. Almost everyone knows that they smoke weed - it's part of their reputation.

As I was discussing some stuff related to me with our school counselor, I decided to tell her about this person and their drug issues. This has now been forwarded to the principal, but that is all I know. I provided some screenshots where the person was trying to sell weed to me via text messages as proof of what I told the counselor per her request.

Am I an asshole for busting them? This person has told me that smoking makes them less anxious and depressed - my morals do not align with what they are doing (selling, promoting) in our school community, which is why I decided to bring this up with a personnel from our school.
