- Generally most friends are not abusive and you probably haven't had to deal with any other abusive friend so this will be a learning curve for you. Most people end up with one abusive friend and have to learn how to cope with them. A wise psychologist once said, 'When someone makes you sad and unhappy 98% of the time it's time to move on.' You should let your abusive friend know what they are doing wrong and if they aren't going to change then you need to move on and there is nothing to feel guilty about as these types of people are a waste of energy and will make you feel bad about yourself by depleting you of your self worth.
Abusive language is often used by people who have a poor self-image and by tearing others down the abuser thinks that he/she is making himself/herself look better.
Whether the abuse is intended to manipulate you into doing something or intended to make the abuser feel better about him/herself is irrelevant; for YOUR well being, it's best to terminate the relationship as suggested above.
People who manipulate tend to use guilt as a tool. When you expressed your feelings to your "friend", he/she responded in a way that an abuser typically controls the situation; he/she probably turned all of the blame on you and did whatever necessary to manipulate you into conforming to his/her will.
True friends will try to build you up and help you see your positive characteristics. True friends make you feel better, just by being around them. True friends do not manipulate or debase.
Perhaps it's time to find a true friend.

Is it more abusive to slam a door or drop an object of yours on the floor or is it really Abuse or is it venting frustration?
It would probably be more abusive to drop the object, but neither are technically abuse. Abuse is repetitive behavior in which the abuser either emotionally destroys and degrades you, or touches you physically in any way that you do not feel comfortable with. Dropping the object on the floor intentionally would be 'damage to property'. Slamming the door would not count as anything other than perhaps an anger management problem.

How can you vent your anger?
Healthy ways of venting anger are going jogging; a walk where it is peaceful and you can gather your thoughts; going to the gym to let off some steam; say what you feel about the situation that is making you angry out loud to yourself in private. Everyone can get very angry and need to vent, but it's better to cool off before confronting a situation or a person.
