What do you say to someone who is always wants to go out JUST to meet people?

My friend is newly divorced and she wants to go out often to places where there are alot of people, and then drink and have someone drive her home. That's fine sometimes. But other times I don't feel like going to a crowded place. Other times I want to drink and take a taxi home and not be the DD.

The other 'catch' is that she is a divorced straight girl, and I'm a single gay guy. I don't mind going to straight bars, but every time we do, I can't flirt with the guys she's talking to.

What do you say to someone like that when you want to shake them and say,"Enjoy MY company, and who cares who else is here...and don't get drunk tonite?!"

    You really need to talk with her baout not always being a taker. She wants yoru company and your presence to look out for her. Since she is newly divorced, she is probably not taking your feelings and needs into consideration. Tell her that you enjoy going out with her but you would like for her to join you at some gay clubs so you can both meet people whom you might eventually have a possibility for a relationship with. You might also tell her that you do not always want to go to these places at all, that maybe just the two of you go to dinner or another activity that does not involve drinking and meeting a lot of people. If she is a true friend she will understand and your relationship will even out with the giving and taking. If she is not, then maybe you make the decision to not go out with her.
