Ugh, poor Charles. Really, it's probably a good thing that no one's mentioned the 'more than friends' bit; I can't imagine the guilt / other assorted emotions that could come from that would help overly much if he already wants to avoid him.
Hopefully he manages to away with the nightmarish elements eventually. He deserves a little quiet time. :c
It's not that he wants to avoid them, but they seem fairly small in comparison to the bigger, more life altering changes he's faced. More so now that he's in a place where he's pretty sure, given time, people will find out the self destructive path he's taken. He's definitely not proud of his addictions, but up until now, hasn't had to worry about anyone caring (Hank being the one and only exception). Now all of a sudden people do? It's taken him for a loop.
