Is that why you're single?  That's pretty gruesome if you ask me.  Seriously
though, I liked your article.  I think one way to avoid getting leached off
of in what you call a counseling relationship is to not get hooked by all of
their crap.  If you can be with them and let them realize that their
horrible life is just what they have to work with (and not your deal
particularly), then maybe they can be a real friend to you.  Of course,
sometimes leaches will be leaches, so just don't let them drag you down.
And oh yeah, have fun.
