Just with a female friend, you also feel a bit more protective to her as a girl might be seemingly weaker.

As we discuss freedom, I don't thinf there is such thing as absolute freedom. It's a spectrum you have to find the sweet spot that you feel most comfortable. And everyone is different E.g. Some people don't like kids as they lost freedom, but some much refer have kids as the joy of having kid far outweighs the lost of freedom.

Same applies to relationship, there is so much in a relationship one would enjoy or need. Many would feel this is outweighs the lost of freedom, if that makes sense.
Yeah man for sure. The same thing happened when I went out with a WL for dinner. Afterwards we went to the pub and played some pokies and she got a bit drunk. As with my work mates christmas party, I did the exact same thing. She said she would be fine and catch the train home and I said to her no way in hell. Regardless of WL or non WL, I won't let a female catch a train drunk by themselves at night or close to midnight. Doesn't matter if they live 20 mins away or a hour. I'll drive them home. This is where the punter in me goes away and the responsible person / friend comes in.
