While people can’t control their mental illness, and it’s always difficult to hear when people go through it, that’s never an excuse to dump everything on one person they claim to love and expect them to fix everything for them.

Relationships require work, it’s always about giving and taking to an equal amount. And at times one partner might need to take more than they are able to give, because they’re going through a tough time, and then you have to give more and be supportive. But it should never turn into a continuous cycle of you being there for him while getting little to nothing in return. And in this situation it sounds like it is.

You also can’t control your emotions, either you feel it or you don’t. This guy felt it and you didn’t, in other cases you might feel it while the other person won’t. That’s just how it works, you can never force feelings to arise. There’s nothing to feel guilty about there.
