Rlyons, I appreciate your honest recount of your experience with this friend. If I were you, I would have stopped this relationship long time ago. I believe in bringing into my life good energy so I can support my efforts to stay healthy not just physically but emotionally and spiritually. I guess you need to ask yourself whether or not your own life and wellbeing in enhaced by his presence. From your posting it sounds like the answer is "NO". Social disorder personality, drinking, drug use (pot)and controlling behavior patterns that "drain" you do not seem to be very healthy. As a matter of fact I would call them pretty toxic!

Ask yourself what do you get out of keeping him as a friend? Why do you accept his controlling behavior? Have you become co-dependant to his behavior? Do you think you will "save" him? Are you willing to risk your relationship with your fiancee over this friendship? I suggest sorting out the reason(s) that still keep you hanging on to him.

Hope this helps and good luck!
