Search Results: drinking at a club

I was talking to people about my female friend and some one told me wow, she really sounds like she is using you. My friend and I have fun together. We go out and go to clubs, she leads me on but we make out and what not (when drunk) I really do care and like her. I try to walk out when she is flirting or kissing other guys (usually when she's been drinking). If we are at a bar and she starts fooling around with some one else I just put my drink down and start to leave and she chases after me threatening that if I leave she'll just follow me. So I stay behind and I hold her while she is either crying or telling me how much I mean to her. I've gotten drunk and have lashed out verbally against her (out of spite and a chip on my shoulder) and she constantly forgives me too. I'm not trying to put myself down but I'm no where as attractive as she and we have a pretty messed up friendship if we have to get drunk to express our feelings.I tried to get her a cab home when she was drunk and she kept crying because I wouldn't let her walk alone downtown at 2am drunk. After we dropped her off the cabbie turned and said "she's very pretty but you deserve better than that man, you are way too good for her". Do abusive dependency friendships exists? Or are we both parasites of each other? She gets to feel valued and comfort from me and I get to be around a pretty girl who shows me affection ones in a while. We haven't dated and I don't think I could date some one with her baggage...but we always spend time together.

I'm 26, she's 27.
