Should I try to save the friendship or move on? If I move on, how? (semi-long question)?

First, let me say this, friendships are not always going to be "balanced and fun." Sometimes people go through things and reach out to old friends because of the familiarity, etc. He is reaching out to you because he doesn't have many friends.

And since you claim you are his friend, sometimes the best thing to do for a friend is to let them vent. Suggest he try to join local activity clubs, or similar likes, (for example: meet-ups is a good place to start). For heavens sake, don't refer him to Craigslist!

Now, there is also such a thing as an "emotional vampire". Check out the following link.

BTW, suggest to your friend to be VERY careful with the 14 year old. That is a minor! And no amount of justification will ever erase the fact the 14 year old is a minor!!! period.
