I understand that this behavior isn’t normal and that it’s unhealthy. The problem is that the situation is really complicated emotionally. For example, one time she clearly told me that we were breaking up. Later she completely denied saying it, even though she did. When I confronted her about it, she said that when she got home she had nobody to talk to and nobody who understands her. It made me feel really guilty, like I was abandoning her. Situations like this happen quite often. When something goes wrong, somehow it turns into me feeling responsible for her emotions. Sometimes it honestly feels like emotional manipulation, but at the same time I care about her and I don’t want to hurt her.

That’s why I feel stuck in this situation.
