Camping kind of sucks, yeah. If you get the gym badge from Falkner in Violet City, that lets your Pokemon use the move Fly outside of battle, which cuts down on travel time a lot. You'd want to ask around if you can borrow the HM for it, but it's unlimited uses, so someone out there is probably willing. Other than that, though, there are books around that'll teach you the basics of camping stuff. And I'd be willing to bet some of the locals would be willing to teach you.
As for your friend, have to say I've been there. Scared of hurting people, especially my friends... Have you talked to her since then? Even if she freaked out, there's a chance that she might not want nothing to do with you. Even if it's something everyone would be afraid of, there are people who would try to see past it.
