Guest12903 Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I am with a girl who i have been in a relationship with for almost a year. She is really into me and tells me she loves me and asks me never to leave her except I am pretty sure I don't want to be in a relationship with her anymore. I can't bring myself to break up with her because I know it could wreck her life. She has no contact with her dad anymore and doesn't really get on with her mum so she ends up at my house a lot of the time. If we broke up she would be very depressed for a long period of time and she would probably end up doing no schoolwork and failing her exams. I don't want to be the cause for ruining her life. I see her a LOT but we spend quite a lot of that time arguing over little things and falling out. I have kind of dropped myself in it because I have told her I'll never give up on her and said I'll never leave her. What do I do?
SweptAway Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 You are not responsible for her happiness. Her problems have nothing to do with you. This is emotional blackmail. Coming from someone who has had a boyfriend threaten to commit suicide if I left them, I know where this goes. Eventually, you'll stop feeling sorry for her, she will become nothing but a pain in the behind and you'll start wondering why you let someone drag you down with them. THen you'll get angry. You aren't doing her any favours by staying because you feel sorry for her. You are certainly not doing yourself any favours. Find the courage to leave before you end up a crazy, guilt-ridden mess.
