['My friend makes stupid and impulsive decisions and often gets himself into trouble.  But I still look out for him', 'You are a loyal friend. I do hope your friend will learn from his mistakes.', 'Thanks. Me too.  Have you ever had that one friend who had some potential but would just sabotage his/herself']
Yes, i have that one friend and you don't want to give up on him. I hope he gets it together soon
Even though my friend is an idiot and gets himself into trouble I still look out for him
