I'm a first year student in BS Psychology in a free college. Everything seems going smooth. Until that one course was failed.

Three of us failed. Me, a guy (we both took the same military training program so we are technically friends) and a carefree girl. I failed due to technical issue. We don't have wifi to be able to access the online activities. For some reason I couldn't open google form and answer it. The professor wouldn't believe me. My friend almost made it to the passing grade. The other one seems didn't care. We asked if we could retake some exams. The professor told us we could on Wednesday, so me and my friend waited for our professor. We are waiting for her to chat her location but she didn't. We decided to meet her next day.

We waited in the morning till afternoon. We never received any chat on where is she. That evening, our class president told us that we three are failed. The two of us we're devastated, we don't know what to do. But the other one? We'll she's rich enough to let it be. She's even bragging about having a birthday party in Dubai. I don't really like that woman, she takes everything lightly.

My friend told me if his brother finds out about the failed course, he will drop out he wouldn't get any support anymore. We are both tired. We don't know if we have to pay for retaking the same course, if we have to, we don't have money to do so.

Last night, my friend chatted me. He told me he already said about his failed course. They pissed off on him, might kick him out as well. He told me that he was planning to CTB. He already write a note in case we couldn't fix this. He told me where and how he will. Based on his chats, his parents aren't supportive. They drag him down and blame him for not working harder.

As he told me about this, I opened to him about the same thing. About how much I really planned to CTB before starting college and starting to do the same. Just to give him a little support that he's not alone.

Today we will try if we could talk to our professor. If we couldn't, again. I might not be able to see him again.

Should I do something? should I let him?

Morally speaking, I should do something.

But, internally. I don't want to stop him. We are both the same. We struggle socially, family, financially and other wouldn't understand that. We both know the pressure of walking on the thin thread.

If I let him be and if his phone messages got recovered... His family might pin me. I might as well follows him.

We never knew much about each other, we just meet for about a months now. We became a close friends in extremely weird circumstances. We both joined the military program and his ex is getting mad because he wouldn't be able to hangout with her. His ex suspected that me and him are dating. No, that's not possible, because if we are dating, we already got kicked out in the program.

I hope we could fix this.

That's a horrible spot to be on honestly.

Answering this, I'd say if I was you, I'd just tell him what I really think about it, the part where you don't think you could stop him, but that you care (or at least that's what I think from this thread, even if it's just from empathy). Even if it doesn't change the outcome, maybe it will make him feel a little better and may go in peace. If there's hope of things getting better, I'd cling onto them and maybe you'll actually get a really good friend. I really hope things get better, and that you both can fix this, I don't really know the situation to the fullest, but really wish you luck

he could just retake the course or apply to a new school, say he had been traveling, and forget about the low grade

honestly many peiple with bs psych degrees struggle to get jobs. he should major in network security and AI to help make sure the AIs running network security in the future are deployed correctly or help them with cables and things they can't do

this is a bad reason to ctb

you should go spend time with him until he calms down

what country are you in?

if your country is ignorant regarding computers, that means less competition for computer jobs

and you can study computer science online remotely in many places
