I have a "friend" like that, too. My H says that whenever I talk to her she brings out "dark" feelings in me. That can't be good. I, too, plan on the occasional get together and to stop seeking her out.
I don't know about your girl, but mine is a user...she uses me emotionally and and she uses me to watch her kids or get something MORE out of whatever situation arises. These type of people always find someone else to suck the life out of. She already has. I've pulled back and now all of the sudden a new girl is coming up in coversation and how she has dinner over there, etc. So, yep, she found someone else to USE. She doesn't like being alone with her kids, so she always would try to come over around dinner whenever her bf wasn't around. As you can see I'm angry about it. YOu should see the "rant" I typed up on my computer so that I wouldn't blast it at her.
So, what I'm saying is, I agree with letting someone out of your life that is not bringing positives into it. My "friend" made me feel bad about myself too (told me I was fat, didn't like my hair, told me I was a "taker", told me that I am not an ambitious person and is why I stayed home with my son, said she could never be a stay at home mom because she has to use her BRAIN, etc.) We don't need those kind of people.
