Yeah, knowing you're no longer in control is a horrifying sensation! I've been there once, without being drugged, and it is a feeling that will stay with you for a long time. Good friends are worth their weight in gold! Make sure you hug Nolu next time you see her!
You are definitely a good friend!! I have seen some horrid stuff in bars where the persons' friend did nothing& basically stood by& watched it happen. I have stepped in twice when friends failed to be decent human beings. One girl was so horrifyingly drugged she couldn't stand without the help of the guy who drugged her& her eyes were shut. He had his hands up her shirt, down her pants& his tongue stuck in her mouth. Everyone stood there watching and not ONE person stepped forward to help her so I grabbed her, took her cellphone& called her parents to come pick her up. You know she went to the bar with friends.. you can't help but wonder with friends like that, why you'd ever need enemies.
And oddly no. Not even my boyfriend. He was at home. I was dancing with my gay friend ..and it was NOT shockingly dirty because I don't roll like that. I walked off the dance floor to get a drink, stepped up to the top step& BOOM. Nailed in the face. It was a super fun night. Shortly after that I stopped being a bar goer with any frequency.
