I have a friend who I like very much, but who has a habbit of asking me to call her because she's feeling low at really incovenient times. I want to be there for her, but it becomes problematic when I feel I can't fairly say no when she asks me to call for a few minutes because she's feeling low, even it's like 1am. If it really was a few minutes, it would be fine, but once she has me on the phone she's impossible to let go, because every time I talk about having to be up in the morning she talks about how people always seem to let her down when she needs them. I do want to be there for her, but I do need to sleep too, and I simply can't survive on talking till 2am or later every night to get up at 7am. How can I be firm about needing to get off the phone without offending her? (link)

i have that problem to with my friend its like she uses me to make her feel better...and it sounds the same with you you need to just tell your friend that you will be there for her but cant be talk on the phone all the time or the lack of sleep will make it worse...how are you talking to her at 1 in the morning when she wants you to call anyways?

She usually sends me text messages asking if I'm still awake, and then asks if I'll call her to cheer her up. I don't feel I can turn down these requests because I do genuinely want to help her, so I get drawn into these conversations.
