I have a friend.  Let us call her Sarah.  Sarah is an addict to trouble.  In the past week she has lost the guy she loved, moved on to another guy that's a coke dealer, gave him a blow job, and is banned from a store for stealing.  She is driving me insane.  I'm supposed to be her best friend she can always turn to.  I've pulled her aside mulitple times to tell her she's acting like a whore because recently that's all she's been worried about people saying that but she's not changing what she does.  She almost dragged a guy she had just met to have sex with him the past weekend, and teasing guys with blow jobs.  It's just ridiculous.  She's hardly a teenager but she's trying to act like she's a 30 y/o but when she does that she only shows her true immaturity.  If she didn't do all of this stuff she would be the person everyone would love because she is really pretty and although her home life is rough right now she would have a great attitude.  I just don't know what to do with her.  At the moment we're off speaking terms, and everyone has left her behind, I'm just not sure she knows it yet.

    oouch that's a tough one.

    i have a friend like that, a little lower on the whore-o-meter though. i think that she is probably doing all this because she lacks real attention...she doesn't get the love she really wants from guys. as annoying as she probably is you need to stand by her-- talk to her even. but don't keep putting yourself out there for her if she doesnt change. u have a life to live too.

    I totally agree with the comment below that you should not leave her.  I feel sorry for her and it honestly sounds like she is crying out for attention.  I think the first step would be to do something just you and her and sit down and actually talk to her one on one and see what this is really all about.  Obviously you care about her because she is your friend but at the same time, there is only so much you can do.  You can't control her every move and emotion and you can't spend you're whole life trying.  As much as this might suck, sometimes you have to show some tough love.  Sometimes you have to wait until some falls but let them know that you will always be there to help them up.  You can't be with her every second of every day but hopefully she will value your friendship enough to take your opinion and concern seriously.
