I think that Rory more or less extrapolated that if the Doctor does this so easily with Amy, he probably does it with just about everyone he meets. And maybe knowing Amy, he can feel/see the difference in her when it comes to the Doctor.
There may be a bit of him feeling as if he also wants to impress the Doctor (because he & the guy w/the laptop whose name escapes me seemed to go through that a bit during the Eleventh hour), but I think it's more so that he just sees how easily the Doctor steers people into that sort of situation/mindset.
As far as the kiss vs. stripper, I think it's more so that it's one thing for Amy to do the kissagram thing as her job, but it's another thing for her to kiss someone else because she wants to. And as far as his stag party, people usually have things thrust upon them by their friends in that situation, so it's probably not like he chose it, whereas he would see Amy choosing to kiss the Doctor which might make him wonder just what's going on in her head/heart when it comes to them (Rory/Amy).
I don't think he was co-dependent so much as he was concerned.
I haven't seen this episode in ages (still trying to breakdown and get the DVDs for a proper re-watch), but from what I remember, I think that's how I read it. ;)
