You just said she has to choose between you two, if she picks him over you all the time, what makes you think she hasn't already made up her mind?
I'm not sure, to be honest. She has made plans with me, then ditched me to spend time with him more than once. Yet if I choose to skip out on her and spend time with people (granted, these are people who I talk to online, as they're 1000 miles away, but also people I'll be living with in a few months instead of with her), she gets all pissy and refuses to talk to me for a few days.

I appreciate the advice, everyone. I think she and I will be having a talk soon. It's my fault for letting her guilt-trip me and walk all over me, but it's also got to be a give-and-take, right?
Well, like i said, if she gets pissy like that because you aren't giving her everything she wants, she's just using you. I've known a few girls like that, hell I was the "other guy" in a 3 person relationship, if you want to call it that, for a good 5-6 months. She strung me along saying she was gonna break it off with the dude, but in the end you realize no matter how many problems she might have with him, if she hasn't done it already she isn't going to. She has the best of both worlds, the comfort of a relationship that has existed for long enough to be cozy, but the excitement of something external that is either not similarly cozy, or just has more passion/riskyness to it. And you let her do it to you. I know it ain't easy, especially if you think she's a genuinely good person under it all.

In regard to what happened to me, I eventually did get sick of it, and left her out of my life. Next thing I know its like a year later and I bump into her, she apologizes for everything (very maturely, I was happy), and said that after I left her she realized how wrong she was and that the end result was she finally left that guy that was treating her so bad and got everything straightened out in her life. Got the job she wanted, found a person that genuinely cared about her, even was considering engagement (ended up marrying and having kids with the guy). Who knows, maybe putting your foot down will set that girl free or get her head straight, even if she doesn't end up with you. I was happy to know that girl I cared so much about had things going well for her finally, even if she did f*ck up with me. lol.

Thing is, we're not in that kind of relationship. We're best friends (have been for about 4 years now), and we live together because it's cheap.

But I've always been second-best when it comes to her and guys. The mythical 'sisters before misters' does not apply in my case, apparently. She will ditch me to go hang out with her boyfriend (any of the ones she's had as long as we've been friends); but should I choose to be with a boyfriend (or, when I was married, my husband), she criticizes me for it.

This happens a lot, with other things too, and I'm kind of surprised sometimes that she and I are still friends after some of the stunts she's pulled (leaving me stranded at work in the snow, waiting two hours for her because she's my only way home comes to mind).
