Obviously use your best judgment, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say these people are still going to be doing whatever they're doing whether or not GaveUp decided to come hang out. Social pressure is definitely a thing but just from your synopsis it seems like they're way past "recreational hobby" territory. I've cut people off because of their use and I couldn't in good conscience be around it anymore, at the end of the day it's whether you feel comfortable with it.

Yes of course, but harm reduction is a thing. I feel declining these social situations might be one of them? Maybe? I've no idea
