Enabler Is Your Enemy, Snake in Your Grass

Enablers are often mistaken for friends when, in reality, they are your worst enemies.

Enablers encourage your self-destructive behaviors. They aid and abet your suffering. They amplify self-harm. 

A true friend would never hand you a loaded gun knowing that you may be suicidal. An enabler would do it.

An enabler would have sex with your girlfriend at your request, aware that this will cause you excruciating pain.

An enabler would ply their alcoholic or junkie friend with drinks or drugs, would encourage a workaholic to work even more, would go on retail therapy sprees with a shopaholic, would induct you into bad company. 

Beware the enabler: charming and smiling and solicitous, he is a snake in your grass.
