Best way to de-escalate this situation?

I've been making out with this girl consistently over the last 3 weekends. I found out last night that she's only 3 months out of a relationship which may be why she never wants to do anything more than makeout. I'm attracted to her, but not enough for a relationship right now and I'm trying to avoid relationships in general right now. She's really nice and I don't want to hurt her. She's also a friend of mine in a small college social circle. It's possible that I'm being a played a little bit and that she isn't really interested in anything serious either but I suspect she likes me more than I like her.

 

Another complication is we drink around eachother a lot so I suspect I'll give into temptation even if I try to back off.

Just back off from her.

I actually talked to her and suggested we try to be more platonic and she was ok with it. Hopefully it won't be too much of a challenge next time there's alcohol involved.
