I've been "friends" with this woman since I met her at work 3 years ago. Long story short, she's married but continues to see her ex boyfriends regularly behind her husband's back. I cannot condone this since he is a good guy, but he's in denial. She starts drinking each day at 10am and drinks throughout the day. She does not work, doesn't have custody of her son, and insists I always drink and tries to get me to smoke marijuana whenever we get together. I keep getting sucked into hanging out with her despite my attempts to ignore her phone calls. I want her and her drama out of my life. Somehow, I don't think confronting her is a good idea, but is just ignoring her a good way to get rid of her? I'd love to tell her how she is ruining her and her husband's life, but I don't think it's my place. What should I do? Any feedback would be great! Thank you!

There is no easy answer, you can only tell this woman that you do not approve of the life style , that you will not join her in her drinking and drugs, , because all she is doing is trying to bring you down to her level, so she wont hate herself so much, You are in charge do not let her suck you in, say no, and mean it

The best way to get her out of your life is to tell her right out what bothers you about what she does. Tell her, it's not your way of running your life, and you'd be better off with friends like her.
It is easy to ignore her calls and all if you don't have the balls to confront her with your real feelings.
Ignoring her long enough, she'll get the hint.

This isnt a real problem, because all YOU have to do is STOP accepting calls, and invites from her.
Tell her how you feels stop being a whimp!!!
