Do you believe you can be addicted to a person and act like an addict?

[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 725136, member: 4152"] A Friend comes to mind. Not an addiction though. We have a wonderful, long history, BUT recent years have been peculiar and stressful...but not abusuve. I've posted about her before. We've been friends for decades. Always very kind. BUT last several years have been bizarre. Some inconsiderate and very weird out of character behaviors on her part. We moved recently. I'm trying to put "distance" between us figuratively as well. Still friends, but more casual. Too many very good years and memories in the past. Yet, due to these recent years of stressful behaviors...I'm pulling back. This ,is at times , is harder than completely separating, but, fingers crossed will work out. I think keeping things status quo just wasn't healthy for me. I've been pretty good moving away from others who are harmful for me...old boyfriends etc. This (oddity with this long term female friend) might be the first time I have done things a little differently...a bit of a compromise. No...I have not felt addicted to someone, particularly if I feel they hurt me. Nope. I won't do that. [/QUOTE]
